Hello, I am hitting a problem at the above location that the program is not continuing. Do I read this line correct, that the program will only continue if it has received a packet? This will cause issues if no packets are received on the selected channel/rate/speed. Is the assumption really that there will always be a packet received? Why can't there be empty channels?

With checksums disabled, you'd need to be in a very quiet environment to never have a packet. Is there no wifi in your area?

Perhaps your goodfet's INFO flash is not set, and the UART is slightly miscalibrarted? That would cause trouble at the same location.

Hi Travis, I am actually using the code on a Raspberry Pi standalone with an NRF module to find the right address and channel of a "Blum ServoDrive" transmitter. This setup is placed in a rural area with tons of WIFI but I assumed that they are all transmitting on different frequencies. I will check this out in more detail but I seem to be hitting the on packet every 1 or 2 runs.

What is your oppinion, should I keep this issue open or close it?
