that didn't work in 2. I managed to install python37 and pip i then had to install with the commands below and follow the packages per debian10 instructions pip install configobj pip install serial pip install usb pip install pip pip install cheetah3 pip install ephem
But i get an error with pip install pil - "could not find a package that satisfies the requirement pil" Do i need pil? I have a WH2900 Fine Offset and in the forums it talks about using the interception driver, but this is not an option during install.
