So i just played with #Reticulum Sideband.

I guess my one big gripe so far is why the hell are there no default presets for Rnodes?

That would make things much simpler to get started as you would just choose the default and have a better chance of connecting with somebody somewhere.

Also, no T1000-E support? That is an incredibly popular node, and I would think something like that should have support.

I got mine working, but not until I set the frequency to 915 MHz. Not very intuitive.

Well, see, that's exactly the problem. If you're on 9.15 and everybody else in your community is on 9.14.25 and you don't know, then you think there's nobody around when there could be tons of people.

Just like how meshtastic has presets, reticulum should as well. A low speed preset, like the equivalent of meshtastic long fast. A medium speed preset, like the equivalent of medium fast. And a quick preset, which range like short fast.

At least that would give you three places to look immediately and a place to go if there was nobody on any of them. You could start out with the default and add more people as they come online and eventually switch if need be.

Legal frequencies are different in every country. Maybe there should be a country-dependent preset. May be you find suitable ones on RMap.

That's easy enough to solve by having different region presets. For example, meshtastic has United States and then EU868 etc. And you just choose which region you're in and it has a default preset.

I was not aware of rmap. Thank you.
