I'm done soldering

A project log for Lux Turpis

Latin for "Light Mixer". A heterogeneous system that is mounted to my antenna mast.

The hardware is basically finished. After a bit more config and testing, the plate will be installed in the IP68 case. I am pleased at the idle current draw being as low as it is (~2 Watts).

The LoRa and 2.4GHz radios are managed by the ESP32, which has a relationship via UART to the Raspi. Remote reflash of the ESP32 is the last thing to be tested before the whole mess is mounted to the antenna mast, and the machine goes into service.
