The Wrew (Pager Monger)

Excited to do a little more work on porting Aurora TDeck firmware from MeshCore to SpectraMesh today.

I’m slowly building out a small network at WrewHQ, expanding to outside the lab to in the main house too. I’m having to play with the tx power a bit to mimic longer distances so I can test multi hop routing and the new route functionality - but so far it appears to be working as intended.

Right now with tx power at 14dbm I can reach the farthest distance from lab to house.

If I drop the power lower and place intermediate nodes I can simulate longer distances and force relaying, which is helping with testing multi-hop.

It’s been fun to build this stuff - and I think after today I’m likely going to open this up for alpha testing. I’ve had some intrepid explorers offer to help and I plan on taking them up on that offer.

I do need to add in the UK/EU frequency bands to the TDMA logic first.
