LoRa Scanner: MeshCore by default, and its public channel read
CI / build (pull_request) Successful in 2m19s
Site / build (pull_request) Successful in 9s

The MeshCore preset is the default for a new device, in the Settings and
in the radio before the Scanner is opened. The setting now accepts it:
it only took the 7 Meshtastic presets, so MeshCore picked in the App was
not saved.

Messages on MeshCore's public channel are decrypted with the channel's
published key (AES-128, checked with 2 bytes of HMAC-SHA256): the row
shows who says they sent it and the start of the text, the details the
sender, the time and the whole text. Other channels and private messages
stay encrypted.

| Q92 | A **Radio Service** owns the SX1262: driver, bus lock, IRQ task. The LoRa Scanner uses it in M3; the Mesh Service sits on top of it in M4. |
| Q93 | Every radio transfer takes the shared bus lock (`SPI.beginTransaction`, as the card does). DIO1's interrupt only wakes the task; no SPI in the ISR. **Done when** a Gemini page streams to the card while the Sniffer receives, with no lost packets and no card errors (`lora status` counters). |
| Q94 | **Receive only:** the Radio Service has no transmit function in M3. It doesn't exist, rather than being unused. |
| Q95 | Sniffer defaults: **EU868 LongFast**, 869.525 MHz, BW 250 kHz, SF 11, CR 4/5, sync word 0x2B, preamble 16 (Q19). The other Meshtastic presets are offered, plus custom settings. |
| Q95 | Sniffer defaults: **EU868 LongFast**, 869.525 MHz, BW 250 kHz, SF 11, CR 4/5, sync word 0x2B, preamble 16 (Q19). The other Meshtastic presets are offered, plus custom settings. *Later, the default became is the MeshCore preset (869.618 MHz, BW 62.5 kHz, SF 8, CR 4/8, sync word 0x12): it is what is heard here.* |
| Q96 | The Sniffer lists packets (time, RSSI, SNR, frequency error, length; hex dump on Enter) **and decodes the Meshtastic header**: the first 16 bytes are never encrypted (destination, sender, packet ID, hop limit and hop start, channel hash, next hop, relay node). Host-tested. Payload decryption is M4. |
| Q97 | A Sniffer **Capture** is pcap with **LoRaTap** headers (link type 270), for Wireshark. Started by hand, Status Bar mark, its own Clean-up category, the 90% rule. |
| Q98 | **Sweep** steps across the Region's band (863–870 MHz) in 100 kHz steps by default, reading instant RSSI: bars with peak hold, and a waterfall, Wi-Fi Tools style. Optionally CAD on the preset's frequency to tell LoRa traffic from noise. |
