Re: Interfacing with homebrew radio

Thanks for the very speedy reply Dan.

I opened Pocket RxTx on my Galaxy 6 Edge phone using an OTG host interface cable to an Arduino Nano with no code in it yet. I assumed Pocket RxTx would handshake the Nano and recognize it as a USB serial adaptor. FYI, the Nano uses a CH340 USB-serial chip, so ...

Where I'm having problems is on initial power-up of Pocket RxTx. It apparently tries to determine if there's a radio connected and ...
