RAKwireless WisMesh Pocket and an alt antenna.

One of the local radio guys pointed me to these

I ordered two Wishmesh board kits because I can test with them and I could print some cases for them.

Sounds like fun. I'm interested in your progress. I'm not making much on my end. I haven't even got the firmware loaded yet.

If you are still having issues @siggy47 I have noticed that Linux can have issues with serial/USB connections. I don't have a solution yet other than use another computer (Windows/Mac).

Yep. I have been down this road before. I will be using my daughter's mac. I had the same issue with linux when trying to load Graphene on my pixel.

This fixed it for me on Linux

The issue is with the permissions on the serial device. One command in the terminal resolved it for me though I have to run it each time I plug the device in.
