RTCM Voter Compiler build fail

Hi All,
I've gotten around to building several of the original voter PCB boards (or
RTCM). I can easily upload Voter.cry and make the boards work, however I
wish to implement "Chuck" squelch which requires a recompile/rebuild.

I've spoken with Chuck who said run everything as default (the same as Jim
had it) and it should build however I'm getting linker errors even before
making the change in HardwareProfile.h.

As I'm not much of a programmer - used MPLAB a few times, I was hoping
someone else had come across this issue. My steps were -
Download latest firmware from svn.

Open voter.mcw in MPLAB v8.92 here. MPLAB C30 compiler is installed with 60
day full functionality.

Build All > That produces these errors.

HI Hayden,

If you want pre-compiled versions, you can grab them from:

http://www.fettechnologies.com/download/VOTER-Firmware_1_50.zip

I had no issues re-compiling them to add “Chuck Squelch” and/or DSP-BEW.

Those images are from the latest SVN code (1518 I believe it was).
