on EU868

Called EU863 - yes, I know it starts at 863 but I see 868 far more often.

Not sure it’s a good vibe to post a link to a repro that’s preset to, cough, the ‘other’ network.

Is Nbtrans that important? The CFlist, hmmm, for a cut down stack against a know channel plan, why process it as long as we know it matches? Or even stop any such downlinks as being redundant.

Perhaps ask the TTN community what would be useful / essential and make it compliant to be a good radio citizen - I for one can work around DevStatus & DeviceTimeReq - the RXParam, RXTiming, NewChannel, etc seem to me to be a function of the network that’s being used and so are known. I’ve not yet figured out how to stop the LNS being anally-retentive about sending settings - I can only dream of a Shut-The-F-Up checkbox. Or perhaps more detail on the console about what else is being said with the Rx1 5s message - or some feedback on why it thinks it hasn’t been acknowledge or the reason for sending it again (and again and again).

I’ve a variety of devices available and have some competency with getting LMIC working on a 328 even now, so happy to help. That said, Digikey will sell you a Wio-E5 (STM32WLE5JC) for less than a combo of an older AVR + power hungry SX1276 and you can run RadioLib on STMduino (aka Arduino) on it. And RadioLib has passed compliance tests for all bar the FSK modes so is pretty compliant.
