Re: The 8.2 (or 8.3) Battery Voltage Bug

At the BAE regional, the IFI person (Corey) at first thought we had a user code bug, but later said that he was of the belief that something was wrong with the RC or the Master CPU code, for the same reasons (user processor code shouldn't be able to corrupt the comms or battery voltage readings). I've given them my code, FWIW. I haven't gotten the 8.2V bug to show up on our 2006 RC with the pure default code dated 2/24 (but I *did* get this code to show the problem with a loaner RC at BAE), but using gyro.hex from frc_gyro.zip I can get this to show up simply by loading the hex code a few times.
