, not much better than the last. The maintainer of the repo suggested I used a Logic Analyser to see if there were any issues with the module. There and then I bought and learned how to use a logic analyser and analysed the SPI pins for how they communicated. I found nothing useful with this but thought it was neat using the logic analyser.
More research into using HSPI for the ESP32 turned up to be that when the MISO pin (pin 12) is set high, it changes something in the internal voltage regulator making it crash. I couldn't find a way around this other than changing a ton of code in that library for it to use VSPI instead.
I gave up here, it's like trying to balance something without a centre of gravity to balance on. I feel this is absurd that something like this is so difficult to use. That's why the price was so slow eh? There are still many things I could try, different libraries, rewriting the SPI protocol, trying different microcontrollers, but I'm just not at that capacity right now to do that; which is why I am leaving it open to y'all.
If you've read through my terrible no-good LORA journey, I will offer to ship you a LORA module and PCB free of charge assuming you're located in Canada for you to test yourself. Message me for details. Link to RadioLib Issue.invalid header: 0xffffffff
