You have to load the firmware to the radio when you get it. Download the ESP-IDF linked in the "final Firmware.md" and install it. Download the firmware zip, "SCRD32 firmware official.zip", and extract the files to a folder with no spaces in name. I downloaded it to "C:/SCRD32" Open the ESP-IDF powershell program and navigate to the folder you saved the firmware in, and type "idf.py build" This will build the firmware then once complete, connect the radio and type "idf.py -p [Port] flash"

Change [Port] to the COM port of the socorad I. E. "idf.py -p COM3 flash" This will load the firmware to the radio
