Xiao esp32s3 wio-sx1262 Lora Kit as P2P LoRa node

Hi PJ, glad to hear from you! I was using 3.1.1 originally, came across your camera post and downgraded to 2.0.8 just cause it was a number you’d mentioned but still the same.
I can communicate through SPI and get correct responses form the 1262 but not able to use it to send any messages yet.
I’ve got a heap of LoRa stuff sitting here just now (challenger rp2040, helvec something lora 2 kit) which i might revert to for a while just to build up the experience and see if that helps at all with this.
Going by the struggle in setting this up just to send a message i’d be very surprised if the LoRa hat in my raspbery pi is actually working, it tells me it’s listening for messages but it could just be pretending since it knows I’ve no way of sending one yet.

The wifi project is working away quite happily getting perfect 15 minute readings from them even buried in a freezer far from the access points but with an rssi from -30 to -90 i’d rather switch it to LoRa if i can. Thanks again for your help with that.
