Using Precompiled Builds

There is a Precompiled builds folder that contains one or more sub-folders with 4 files in each.

One is a readme that contains a list of the filenames and the offsets needed to use the Flash Download Tool. See the below Wiki page for how to use the tool with these files.

Over time there will be several folders to choose from. Below are key items to look for.

Hardware - Select hardware that matches what you have. Today I precompile on 2 devices, the ESP32-S3-DevKitC and the M5AtomsS3. As the M5AtomsS3 is more of a fun exercise due to the limited native IO, I will only occasionally up this folder, likely upon a request basis.

Date - Generally I only keep the latest date builds. You can look at commit history and find older versions if you need for some reason.

Special Feature - I may have a special or experimental feature to try out.

BCD or One-of-6 output Pattern - The default output pattern on the USB decoder is 1-of-6. The Remote Decoder board is an optional PCB that uses 3-line BCD inputs to select 1-of-8 outputs for each band and PTT group. With only 6 bands supported on the current USB decoder PCB and it's 15-pin connector, only the first 6 of those 8 outputs will be used. The board may be used with other radios (like a Yaesu, or Elecraft K3 with BCD outputs) or CPU-based controllers and thus use all 8 outputs. I will have a precompiled build set for BCD patterns for each band to match the Remote Decoder board.
