Hi there, just finished up a SOTACat v.03 by K5EM and am having some issues getting it to work. I am able to connect it via the webpage, and it creates a hotspot. However, it throws errors in the log and then eventually goes to sleep/powers down. I’m going to assume that I probably made an error soldering, as I am not the greatest at surface mount, but was wondering if there was perhaps some helpful troubleshooting steps I could perform to see where I went wrong? Below is the data log:
