Thanks for posting your question! You rock. So if I understand you correctly, you have two pycubed boards talking to each other but you're unable to get a single board to communicate with itself over the radio. AnswerYour code and boards are working fine 🙂 a single radio will never be able to "talk" (transmit) while simultaneously "listening" (receiving). This is simply a limitation of modern transceivers. Now of course there are special scenarios where the transmitted signal can be reflected back, but for all practical purposes, you should always think in terms of TWO radios communicating with each other. Does that make more sense? I'm happy to elaborate further. |
