RAK831 setup, which repo?

I just ordered one, looking forward to contributing because there are so few open gateways in Vancouver Canada.

these two writes up sold me:


https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/labs/story/rak831-lora-gateway-from-package-to-online

I thought I’d try some of the packet forwarders, both of these are well liked/used on things network?


https://github.com/ttn-zh/ic880a-gateway.git ~/ic880a-gateway
https://github.com/ch2i/LoraGW-Setup
or…
https://github.com/hallard/RAK831-Zero

and… is there a command line flag to run the packet_forwarder without the radio module, just to send a test packet to things dashboard?

all the startup guides begin with new image, is that really necessary? easy to enable SPI on most pi’s.

Thanks,
Brad
