[Discuss-gnuradio] SD card problems on recent USRP2 shipments

[Matt Ettus]

If you received your USRP2 recently and it has a blue Patriot 2 GB SD 
card, then there is a good chance that the flash card is bad. 
Unfortunately, we got a batch of SD cards where most were bad, and they 
were not tested before we shipped them out.

The symptom is that no LEDs on the front panel light up when you apply 
power with the flash card inserted.

If this happened to you, please send an email to address@hidden with 
the subject "SD Card".  In the email, please tell us how many cards you 
received that were bad, and give us your mailing address where we can 
send you good ones.

We are very sorry for the inconvenience.  We will get your replacements 
sent out as soon as we get the email from you.  We will be changing our 
procedures so that we test all SD cards before shipping to insure that 
this does not happen again.
