Configure MMDVM hotspot with BlueDV - Lets Ditch the Pi !

•We will connect MMDVM_HS to BlueDV application (by PA7LIM) running on windows PC using FTDI module (CP2102/CH340G), Without the need of Raspberry Pi. Any FTDI module should work good provided it has 3.3v pin. •Do not connect 5v of the FTDI module to MMDVM_HS. •USB HAT BOARD is used to for convenient usage of hotspot. •A special thanks to PA7LIM for developing such a wonderful application. •I have tested only DMR mode, Other modes can be tested and the results can be commented.
