Hi. Glad that you have been released the updated library for SX1280 as well. I would like to give a try with sx1280. However, I would like to know whether we need to use the same SX1280 radio on the Raspberry pi gateway side?. Cant we use built-in 2.4GHZ from Bluetooth on the raspberry pi since sx1280 claims it can support 2.4Ghz & supports Bluetooth stack as well?. Any kind of comments appreciated.

Hi, theoretically yes probably. But in practice, it is quite difficult because the support of Bluetooth by SX21280 is only at the physical layer. So you have to built everything on top of this and this is not trivial.

regards,
