| I rummaged in the 'little parts' box and found an 8Gb MicroSD card, and used the Raspberry Pi Imager to put the current 32-bit 'Lite' version of Raspberry Pi OS onto the card, checking that the customization settings were setting the Pi's network name, adding my WiFi details, a username, and a password. Once the card was written I put it into the Pi Zero 2W and started it up. The first startup takes a little while as the system resizes itself to use all available space on the MicroSD card, so I went and got myself some coffee. | I rummaged in the 'little parts' box and found an 8Gb MicroSD card, and used the Raspberry Pi Imager to put the current 32-bit 'Lite' version of Raspberry Pi OS onto the card, checking that the customization settings were setting the Pi's network name, adding my WiFi details, a username, and a password.

| After the restart a webpage was available at ''<nowiki>http://wspr-pizero2/wsprrypi</nowiki>'' to configure and enable the transmissions. I entered my callsign and saved the page, not yet flipping the transmit enable switch. That needs to wait until I receive and build the kit & filter. | After the restart a webpage was available at ''<nowiki>http://wspr-pizero2/wsprrypi</nowiki>'' to configure and enable the transmissions.
