It found the SIM card on the first boot and it had never failed to find and make and receive calls. It awesome. So then I switch the SD card to the Pinephone Pro and it will not boot from the SD card. It turns out only the original pinephone boots by default to the SD card, the Pro version does not. Why? 

The original PinePhone and PinePhonePro require different images (operating systems) to be loaded. PostmarketOS made for the PinePhone will not work on the Pro. You will need to reflash the correct OS for the Pro before inserting it into the Pro.

The PinePhonePro boot orders changes depending on the boot loader. Start with tophneal link above.
