If you have a Fox-in-a-Box-v3 Raspberry Pi image, here's how you can upgrade the version of FoxTelem:
Steps to Upgrade version of FoxTelem for FIABv3

On your Pi, open the Chromium browser and download the new linux version with this URL: https://www.g0kla.com/foxtelem/downloads/test/
Close Chromium.
Open File Manager (file icon at top)
Click on Downloads
Right click on the new version you just downloaded and select Extract To
Click on the little file icon next to Extract To then click on Desktop then Open. Or, just type this in the Extract To box: /home/pi/Desktop
Click Extract
Close File Manager
You should now see a new Folder on the Desktop with the new version of FoxTelem. The name of the folder is what you will type in a command below. For example FoxTelem_1.12z1_linux
Open a Terminal Window (click on black box in top) then type:
rm FoxTelem
ln -s Desktop/FoxTelem_1.12z1_linux/ FoxTelem
Close the Terminal Window.
Now, when you run FoxTelem the first time, you may get an error such as this: Could not read properties file. If this is a new release then the format has probably been extended. Should I create a new properties file after reading as much as possible from the existing one?
Click Yes
You may then get messages saying there is a newer spacecraft file - click Yes each time.
You will need to do this for each profile of FoxTelem such as FIAB, CubeSatSim Ground Station, or Download.
You can now move the old FoxTelem version folder to the trash and empty it.
