# Notes about v0.0.9 (pre release)

v0.0.9 is the first version to support SSDV (tested in LoRa mode 1, no fec packets). However there are a few points to consider:
- As SSDV packets are sent one after another very fast, I had to rewrite a lot of the code to keep up with the received packets.
- Packets that need uploading are now sent to a queue and uploaded in a seperate thread on another core of the esp32
- As updating the OLED display with "time since last packet" and flashing the "flashpin" takes up a lot of processing time, I temporary disabled these features in v0.0.9. Hopefully I find a good solution to make this faster and enable it again in future versions.
- v0.0.9 is only marginally tested. I would appreciate it if you can give me feedback and testing results

If v0.0.9 is not working to your linking, just revert to v0.0.8.
If v0.0.9 is not working to your liking, just revert to v0.0.8.

# Hardware needed
The sketch is designed to compile in the Arduino IDE and work with a TTGO T-Beam board but it will also work with seperate hardware modules.
