+I consulted with the WAOARC25 Kit team, but for a time we could not figure out why my installation was broken, but Tom 2E0JJI's prototype using the same software setup was working fine.  After having a look at an image of my MicroSD card, 2E0JJI noticed that I had version 2.1.1 of the wsprrypi software installed, where his prototype was still on version 2.0.1.
+After a short time, Tom got me to try installing the software on the Pi Zero 2W with a modified command, forcing it to use version 2.0.1.  If you were wondering why the installation guide has such a different install command than the actual documentation for wsprrypi, you've just found the answer!
+Version 2.0.1 worked well with transmissions appearing as expected on the waterfall in WSJT-X, and were also getting decoded sucessfully.  Tom then wondered if it would also work on a Pi 4, so I did some more hat-shuffling and started it up.  It worked on the Pi 4 without a problem.
+I submitted a bug report on the wsprrypi github[[https://github.com/lbussy/WsprryPi/issues/215]] and at the time of writing, the developer is investigating.
+As part of the testing they have asked me to use a 64-bit version of the Raspberry OS and install the software (although I don't think that configuration is supported just yet).  It has been running temporarily connected to the 9:1 with about 20m wire that is normally used by my packet node (GB7BMY) on 40m, and seems to be doing well.
