Does LoRaWAN/TTN/TTI make sense to track migrating birds?

Yup, that’s what I was afraid of.

You clearly seem to know everything, would you care to provide a link or some keywords to this topic? And why do you feel the need to insult me in the process? My very first action on the forum was to look precisely for existing threads but I didn’t find anything useful. I’m sure with the right keywords your thread appears as the first result, but it didn’t for me. With the many years of topics on this forum I find that the search is really difficult to get results with, compounded by the fact that a lot of discussions are outdated due to newer versions of stuff.

Update: is Metadata about the gateway - #27 by onehorse what you’re referring to? I was fooled by the topic title. What I got out of the thread is a reminder that TTN gateway location may be wildly inaccurate, a link to a GPS antenna effectiveness comparison, and the knowledge that a Lukas in Switzerland has a 1g GPS + LoRaWAN tracker but it’s secret and he disappeared. Did I miss something relevant to this discussion?

I prefer to eat cheese! But thanks for pointing out that MCCI Arduino doesn’t like sx1262’s. I don’t mind writing a driver but it would be real good to start with something that already works as first step. When I pull up any ST library source code on my browser there’s a big red “do not use if you value your sanity” watermark across the screen… I guess I’ll have to ignore that for the first step :roll_eyes:
