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.

Outside, on battery, an hour on LongFast with a Capture running: 0
packets, 0 headers. The noise is no lower than at the desk and its peaks
follow the device, so about 15 dB of the floor is the Cardputer's own
(issue #20). With IRC on TLS and the radio listening, 52.6 KB free. One
"Done when" item is half met: Sweep was never tried against a known
transmitter. The card's refused writes are issue #21.

Tab in the LoRa Scanner sweeps 863-870 MHz in 100 kHz steps (the
strongest of three RSSI readings at each, at 125 kHz), shown as bars with
peak hold over a waterfall, the Sniffer's frequency marked (Q98). The
Sweep pauses the Sniffer and keeps its packets; Tab resumes it (Q99).
Status Bar: SW. The floor, top and peaks are host-tested; `lora sweep
on|off|dump` prints them on the console.
At the desk: about 607 ms a pass, a flat floor at -100 to -102 dBm
(15 dB above the chip's own) and a steady carrier at 863.2 MHz.

The Sniffer lists packets newest first (time, RSSI, SNR, and for
Meshtastic the sender, receiver and hops), with the clear header and a
hex dump on Enter (Q96); `p` picks an EU868 preset, kept in Settings
(Q95). `c` starts a Capture: pcap with LoRaTap in /captures/lora, its own
Clean-up category, recorded by a small Service so it carries on with the
App closed (Q97, Q100). The Status Bar shows L while listening, bright on
each packet, and CAP while capturing (Q101). StorageService gains raw
appends for binary files. Debug Builds get `lora inject` to test all of
this with no transmitter in range: a Capture made on the device reads
back in TShark field for field.

The 16-byte clear header (hops away, channel hash, relay node), the EU_868
presets and their frequency slots, and the channel hash, all checked
against Meshtastic's source. Captures are pcap with LoRaTap v0, read back
with TShark 4.2.5; packet RSSI is plain dBm, as Wireshark reads it.

The probe finds the SX1262 (TCXO 1.8 V works) and measures the antenna
path: the Cap's PI4IOE5V6408 at 0x43 must drive P0 high, or the receiver
is deaf (-111.9 dBm flat vs -87 to -94 dBm with P0 high). DIO2 makes no
difference to reception. Receive only; the radio is left asleep.
RadioLib 7.8.1 + probe: +23.6 KB flash, +656 B static RAM (release).

The Radio Service owns the SX1262 and shares the SPI bus with the card;
the LoRa Scanner shows packets (Sniffer) and the band (Sweep). Nothing in
M3 can transmit. Notes and the File Browser move to issues #19 and #3.
