Hi,
I would like WsprrPi to be launched at boot.

I tried to add the following sequence in /etc/rc.local, it crashes
/usr/bin/sudo /usr/local/bin/wspr --repeat --offset --self-calibration MyCall MyLoc 20 30m 0 & > /dev/null 2>&1

So I tried to set this in the crontab evry 15 min, it crashes.
usr/bin/sudo /usr/local/bin/wspr --offset --self-calibration MyCall MyLoc 20 30m 0

By crashing I mean that not only there is no transmission, but it also make the WiFi fail.

Launching both command manually work fine.

Installing this systemd sevice as described works fine for me:

Regards, Thorsten
(BTW: I use the TX blinking LED modification and have a visual feedback if wspr starts and transmitts)
