A few questions and warning.

Warning is first. PCB has error in design, I don't know is it in KiCAD file or PCB manufacturer mistake but on 3.3 volt bus has vial shorting C7 to the ground. The best way to fix it is to use 3 mm drill from ground side to cut connection.

Now is question. Will VSWR board work right away or it need some software installation, programming. If programming is needed, please advise how it to do in details.

Thank you.

Do you mean the board little board which is present in the https://github.com/pa3gsb/vswr repo?

This module had some software which is not part of the radioberry firmware.

You can use the standalone software

Hope this helps

Yes, I mean this small board. Will bord work as a part of PIHPSDR and show VSWR readings in upper right corner when radio is in tune mode?
