[hfsig] WSPR module -- fit on Pi board

[Orrin Winton]

Zoltan, thanks, i just ordered that extension! That way i won't have to
remove the heatsink. ... It is a Pi2B. The heatsink came, as an accessory,
with the Pi. So i installed the heatsink. Maybe the heatsink is not
necessary?

Also, is there an online guide to the wspr board?
