Title: One (of two) moteino R3's radio.sendWithRetry blocks - other one works fine
Post by: gherlein on August 02, 2017, 08:04:36 PM
From the send_struct example:

   if (radio.sendWithRetry(GATEWAYID, (const void*)(&theData), sizeof(theData)))
      Serial.print(" ok!");
    else Serial.print(" nothing...");

I have two moteino R3 units that have been in my parts bin for a few years.  One works fine.  The other blocks on the radio.sendWithRetry() call.

Both units run blink fine.

How can I troubleshoot this to see what's wrong?  Visual inspection of both units seems totally fine.

NOTE:  these were unused prior to this week but were not in anti-static bags, so it's possible that they got some electrostatic zapping.  Is the radio more susceptable than the arduino itself?

You will need to provide more details about the radios and antennas and the code on each (if either code or hardware is different in any way) and how you use them.
