Erraneous TX power settings for SX1276 in radio.c?

[cyberman54]

For me it seems LMiC code in radio.c selecting the PA Output pin of SX1276 is erraenous. Always Pin PA_BOOST is selected. This can cause malfunction, if board hardware does not wire this pin, because it uses the RFO_HF / RFO_LF pins only.

Further details on this issue can be found here.

Thanks for posting this. In our experiments (e.g. porting to the Murata module), we have found other items that need to be corrected -- for example, the polarity of the RX/TX switch antenna switch. We recently added LBT support to https://github.com/mcci-catena/arduino-lmic, on branch TMM-feature-as923jp, and we had to further extend the "pin mapping" (really, the "configure-for-my-hardware") table. Since we're currently testing in Japan, we'll update the mcci-catena fork based on our results, and at that time we can look into also extending the pin-mapping table to support this. As always, the problem is testing....
