HamClockV2.0: FT8, General, Settings, World Modes with Buttons - Hybrid BMP/Code Created collaboratively by Pete Parise and Grok (xAI), Feb 2025 A hybrid display solution for the Matrix Portal M4 using CircuitPython 8.2.10. Features:
- Compiled BMP sprites (tx_red.bmp, tx_blue.bmp) for TX boxes with gamma-adjusted colors, solving bit-depth rendering issues from earlier versions.
- Code-generated Bitmap/Palette graphics for line, drift, and dots, reverting to proven methods.
- Four modes: FT8 (TX toggle), General, Settings, World (with added line/drift/dots, centered time).
- Built through iterative troubleshooting, leveraging Pete's insights on LED gamma and mode design. First of hopefully many joint projects—capturing time, creativity, and pixel precision!
