cmcgrath, your download seemed to work better.

avrdude done. Thank you.

Now I guess I have to find a later version of tgFX? It's not recognizing it. The blinking light turns off, but nothing else comes on except the blue light. Is that right? I used avrdude 5.1.1. Maybe I should try 6.0.1?

Nevermind. 6.0.1 just keeps failing.

tgFX stuck on this:

Getting TinyG Firmware Build Version....

Build 2072

AH!!! I just flashed it again and it worked!

I downloaded the hex file and let it save as .txt. Then thought I should save it as hex directly. Well, the hex one downloaded at 277K but flashed at 102K. That one was a dud. I renamed the .txt one to .hex that was 283K, flashed it and all is well. Finally!

Thanks all for your help. Hope this helps someone. Saving it as .txt and renaming it to .hex worked for me.
