[Xastir-dev] LORA and interfacing

[Kristoff]

Steve,


Your project interests me too.

We are using this hardware:
https://github.com/LilyGO/TTGO-T-Beam

We are on 433.775 MHz, 150 KHz, SF12, 4/5
What frequency and what mode do you use?


The software comes from this project:
https://github.com/lora-aprs
But if the code of your project is standard arduino, it shouldn't be to 
difficult to port it to ESP32.

Apparently, there are also some high-altitude balloon projects that use 
lora for their telemetry download.



My personal interest is to use this for doing some software 
experimentation, so I use micropython on the ESP32 (fast development) 
and not the arduino code.
