we'd like to request the option to select sub-band for AU915 and US915.

US915 -

Sub-Band 1 | 902.3 - 903.7 | 0-7 Sub-Band 2 | 903.9 - 905.3 | 8-15 Sub-Band 3 | 905.5 - 906.9 | 16-23 Sub-Band 4 | 907.1 - 908.5 | 24-31 Sub-Band 5 | 908.7 - 910.1 | 32-39 Sub-Band 6 | 910.3 - 911.7 | 40-47 Sub-Band 7 | 911.9 - 913.3 | 48-55 Sub-Band 8 | 913.5 - 914.9 | 56-63

Downlink sub-bands | Frequency range (MHz) | Channels Downlink sub-band | 903 - 914.2 | 64-71

kind regards

Next release, in progress. I hope mid November

It has been added to master. Tester welcome

FYI AU915 as of 2022-11-17 has switched from FSB2 (ch8-15) to FSB6 (ch40-47). They're calling it Dual Plan so joins can overlap with AS923 devices.

out of curiosity, how does one select the sub band? GUI or UART?

mcauser commented 1 year ago

@deeeblack GUI: Reboot, hold middle d-pad button until you see text, release button Presents the config screen Use top buttons to cycle through zones

UART: The zone is in the EEPROM at address 0x29 If you modify it, you'll need to recalculate the checksum at 0x03 Easier just using the GUI.

I just found/fixed a bug with AU915 sub band selection: https://github.com/disk91/WioLoRaWANFieldTester/pull/65 Missed 2 vars in the search/replace.

Of note, I can only select +16dbm for power when using the AU915-6 setting. Can we max the power I think +22dbm on this setting?
