Documentation inconguent: is BAND 868E6 or 866E6 ? #437

Closed clabnet closed 3 years ago

clabnet commented 3 years ago

On doc page :

https://github.com/sandeepmistry/arduino-LoRa/blob/master/API.md

there are write two bands : 868E6 and 866E6.

What is the correct band ?

IoTThinks commented 3 years ago

By right, should be 868E6 as 868Mhz is more common.

However, 868Mhz chip can send packets at 866, 868, 899, 878.556 or 915 Mhz with no issue.

SX1278 can use frequencies from 135-950Mhz. 433, 868 or 915 Mhz modules are for frequency optimization, cost optimization and marketing.

Should only have 2 types of modules 135-525Mhz and 525-950Mhz.

Done. Likely the shortest pull request ever. https://github.com/sandeepmistry/arduino-LoRa/pull/438
