Node with ESP8266 and RFM95W
@davemee The reserved pins on the module are clearly the programming pins for the ICD. The LoRa and LoRaWAN code can be ported from IBM-LMIC or Semtech and flashed onto the PIC with minimal changes...

@sergiosena Does the sensor node also have a very accurate real time clock? If you only have the RSSI values of the satellites, but don't know when the measurement was done, you also won't know where...

@jpmeijers Yes it has a very accurate RTC clock, around ~1..2ppm, constant temperature calibration.A timestamp is always sent/logged with Sat data. At server side, when data is received, it will be...

RN2483 or Similar for the USA?
I think the 2483 came out before the 2903, so the former was available sooner. Last week, the 2903 still had the "NEW" icon next to it on digikey.

Well, I think you're all set! If the gateway is running and the node is sending data, they head over to the API and see if you see your data there.
