@attermann Can I ask a review for this PR too ? FYI - Using this on 2 RAK19003s, 2 RAK19007s and 2 Wismesh Tags successfully. |

Apologies for not getting to this (and other) PRs yet. Life is a little demanding atm. This looks good, I just need to find the time to go over it in detail. |

I checked the current Meshtastic firmware and it applies the same 2 settings to both the RAK4631 and the RAK3401 with the RAK13302 module:
So yes, the increased current limit could plausibly be related to the reported transmission-side issue on the RAK13302. If the previous limit was too low, the radio output feeding the external power amplifier could have been reduced or unstable. However, this would mainly explain transmission problems. It would be less likely to explain a genuine reception or low-noise amplifier issue for which I have no clue. Now, take your time for reviewing, no worries, there's no emergency. I keep a local branch where I merged all my PRs, so, not an issue for me ;) |
This PR addresses several physical layer misconfigurations for the SX1262 transceiver on the RAK4631 (drawing upon proven optimisations from the Meshtastic project and RadioLib):
This ensures the 22dBm transmit power is not artificially clipped by the default 100mA limiter, maximising range and signal integrity.
