Thanks for reaching out!!

I have tried 3 different pools. I have tried several previously working start codes (diff freqs & diff pools). I have tried changing voltage on both the miner and in the code.

I'm super noob, but the [oo] looks wrong to me - i though there were more chips. It seems to power up okay -I haven't tried a different controller yet; unfortunately, that will need to wait until the weekend...and it's a terrible crypto week :-(
