I don’t remember the minicom string but it was the one posted to test TEST. 
When I opened minicom it just sat there no echo on TEST or VER. No reply. 
Several reboots no results. /dev/ttyUSB0 is there but does not respond. 
Dmesg Seems to have found it.
I checked all plugs and connections. Removed batteries from console to 
reboot. Even tried new RS232/USB dongle. I have a main ubuntu linux pc 
running from the ISS so I know that’s working and sending data. The rpi is 
setup as a second console which was running weather34. Thanks Tom and 
Graham (you helped me in the days of wview).
