Works as expected, even on a Raspberry Pi 5
Works as expected, the instructions for the module were found on the internet. The only thing is that the HAT installation means that there is no heatsink, so I additionally bought a GPIO extender.You can look at my project in GitHub, there are many links to documentation (nick LionZXY, SMS2Telegram project).
