Say I start the node and then what?
I’m struggling to see the value here. At $50, this seems hard to justify given the availability of cheaper, well-supported options like MuziWorks Duo, Ebyte, and other newer LR1121/LR2021-based designs. Those chips offer both 2.4 GHz and sub-GHz support in a single modern package, often at roughly half the price, which makes the SX1281 feel fairly outdated.
AFAICT, this just combined two chips on a board. And the 100x bandwidth is due to using a higher frequency chip. Nothing revolutionary.
