Craig,

I am trying to recall how to update to the new version without losing my settings. Is there a way to save a copy of config files to PC and then upload into new version to replace default config files? Would save a lot of time.

Thanks for any thought.

Jonathan, KK7PW

Hi Jonathan,

if you use filezilla, sftp  to p...@digipi.local (password is "raspberry")

backup "local", "config" and "fldigi" folders to your PC.

Flash to a new sd card, then restore those folders... then immediately reboot

if it helps,
