Getting Help with the Wsprry Pi Support GPT

The Wsprry Pi Support GPT can help you troubleshoot Wsprry Pi by reviewing your description of the problem and, when available, a Wsprry Pi support bundle ZIP.

Start here: Open the Wsprry Pi Support GPT.

Quick Start

  1. Open the Wsprry Pi Support GPT.

  2. Briefly describe what is going wrong.

  3. Upload a Wsprry Pi support bundle ZIP if you already have one.

  4. If you do not have a support bundle yet, ask the GPT to help you collect one.

You can still start with the GPT even if you do not already have a bundle.

What the GPT Can Help With

Use the Wsprry Pi Support GPT for help with issues such as:

  • Configuration problems

  • Runtime errors

  • Audio or signal-generation behavior

  • WSPR decoding or spotting questions

  • Upload or reporting problems

  • Raspberry Pi environment issues

The GPT is meant to help with troubleshooting. It is not a substitute for checking hardware safety, licensing rules, antenna setup, or local operating requirements.

What to Tell the GPT

Include a short description of the problem. The most useful details are:

  • What you expected to happen

  • What actually happened

  • What you were doing when the issue occurred

  • Whether the issue happens every time or only sometimes

  • Any recent changes, such as updates, configuration edits, hardware changes, or network changes

A short, specific description usually helps more than a long transcript with no context.

Using a Support Bundle

A support bundle ZIP gives the GPT useful diagnostic context. It can help identify configuration, runtime, audio, WSPR decoding, upload, and Raspberry Pi environment issues.

If you already have a support bundle, upload it to the GPT. If you do not, ask the GPT to guide you through collecting one.

Example Questions

You can ask questions such as:

  • “I expected Wsprry Pi to transmit on 20m, but I do not see any spots. Can you review this support bundle and suggest what to check?”

  • “The application starts, but transmissions do not appear to run. What does this support bundle show?”

  • “Can you look for configuration problems that might prevent WSPR uploads?”

  • “Does this bundle show any runtime errors or environment problems?”

  • “I do not have a support bundle yet. Can you walk me through collecting one?”

What Not to Upload

Do not paste or upload:

  • Passwords or private account credentials

  • API keys, tokens, or other secrets

  • Unrelated personal files

  • Private documents that are not part of the support request

The support bundle is intended for diagnostics, but you should review what you upload if you are concerned.

If the GPT Cannot Solve the Issue

If the Wsprry Pi Support GPT cannot identify the problem, keep the support bundle and the GPT’s summary. That information can make it easier to ask for help from the Wsprry Pi project or community.
