last uf2-build not working? #17

Closed marcels1990 closed 5 months ago

marcels1990 commented 5 months ago

Hello,

today i set up a tracker and i tried to copy the last build (https://github.com/EngineerGuy314/pico-WSPRer/blob/main/build/pico-WSPRer.uf2) to the pico but it does not reboot. Is there an error in the build? i tried some other uf2 examples and these file worked fine.

thank you very much and many thanks for the wonderful project 73 IN3IZL

I just tried it with uf2 from that link and it worked fine.

What are the symptoms? Do you see any activity on the LED? If plugged into a PC does it show up as serial port?

marcels1990 commented 5 months ago

the pico does not reboot after i copy the file. There is no LED activity and the COM-Port does not show up. Is there a way to debug it?

EngineerGuy314 commented 5 months ago

no way to debug without the serial port. email me the .uf2 that you downloaded and I will take a look.

pico-WSPRer.zip this is the file i am using, i had to make a zip to upload it

ok problem solved, now i tried to download the file directly from github (raw). First i was downloading it with "wget https://github.com/EngineerGuy314/pico-WSPRer/blob/main/build/pico-WSPRer.uf2" but after downloading it via the raw button it worked. thank you very much
