I just got mine. Flashed it and have to do some local tests.
Also I should fab up another better antenna than the dinky little thing it comes with.
Aaand, I have to build and flash the nodejs web app which I'll probably put off for a
while since I'm allergic to nodejs.
I also have a pair of 433Mhz ones which I think might be much better for longer-range
links than 915Mhz. I can make some pretty bad-ass high-gain antennas for that band too.
So far seems like a neat little board with a lot of potential.

I have this node from aliexpress, wanna walk me
through flashing it? Or
checking to see if it's flashed? Then I can put it up on my roof.
