[App_rpt-users] radio-tune-menu error

Fail.

Very frustrating with no log output.

The settings on this machine are identical to my working node that uses
the Limey Linux for Intel.

Mind you, I've made zero changes to rpt.conf. Only to usbradio.conf, and
that was to the node designation, which it is now back to what it was
after downloading the configs from the portal

There are a few of you that do not have anything helpful. If you are
tempted to saying anything useful, save the electrons.

> The portal config does add the node number, usb[nodenumber], to the config files like you said. But if you only have one usb device the [nodenumber] is not needed because usb by itself is unique. If your older node was configured by hand it’s likely to have only usb as the designation. Whatever the designation in the usb config is, it has to match the rxchannel= in the node stanza of rpt.conf.
