Hello,

I've tried to upload firmware to Lilygo SX1262 T-Beam AXP2101 v. 1.2

It doesn't work. Terminal show me this:

[INFO][AXP2101] init done! [INFO][Main] LoRa APRS Tracker by OE5BPA (Peter Buchegger) [INFO][Main] Version: 23.36.0 [INFO][LoRa] Set SPI pins! [INFO][LoRa] Set LoRa pins! [INFO][LoRa] frequency: 434855000 [ERROR][LoRa] Starting LoRa failed!

What is the problem? Piotr

As you can see, You have different LoRa chip.

Firmware probably support only old one SX1276, but you have newer one SX1262. So driver will not work.

You have to either buy older version of this board (currently I am looking for combination with M8M GPS, becase that 6M you really do not want) or implement support for SX1262 LoRa chip (which would be better, because it has better sensitivity)
