 ====== Malaysia Peak Routers ======
-Just the ones I have deployed, for now, but I will try to document the rest of them in my free time.

+==== Configuration ====
+Some things to double-check.
+  - Setting 0 for some Meshtastic settings does not result in a default value
+    - ''lora.hop_limit'' of 0 results in a valid setting of 0 rather than the default of 3
+    - Telemetry (device, environment, power) interval  setting of 0 in ROUTER mode does not result in a default of 30min but rather auto-scaling with a minimum of 12 hours (see [[https://github.com/meshtastic/firmware/issues/4466|meshtastic/firmware#4466]])
+  - Be careful with Meshtastic CLI when trying to add authorized admin public keys (see [[https://github.com/meshtastic/python/issues/827|meshtastic/python#827]])
+  - Double check configuration with ''%%--export-config%%''
+==== Packing List ====
+  - New Meshtastic Device
+    - Firmware, latest alpha build with [[https://github.com/ndoo/meshtastic-firmware/tree/my_hams/|my_hams]] changes
+  - Hardware
+    - Ladder, A-frame, 6 or 7 step (1.5–1.7 m height)
+  - Hand Tools
+    - Screwdriver, Phillips, PH0
+    - Screwdriver, Phillips, PH1 or PH2
+    - Screwdriver, Slotted, ≈5mm
+    - Wire cutter
+  - Electrical Tools
+    - Laptop, with Meshtastic CLI and Meshtastic firmware and development environment
+    - RTL-SDR
+    - Powerbank, with USB-A and USB-C PD
+    - 1-2 Meshtastic devices
+  - Cables
+    - Coaxial RF cable, for node to antenna, RG58/LMR200 or similar
+      - Be extra careful of RP-SMA and SMA compatibility - SMA female and RP-SMA male connectors are physically compatible but will air-gap the signal conductor
+    - Coaxial RF cable, for RTL-SDR
+    - USB, Type-C to USB Type-A
+    - USB, Type-C to USB Type-C
+===== Deployment Procedure =====
+==== Post-Deployment Checks ====
+  - RSSI
+    - Measure RSSI from 2 other nearby Meshtastic devices
+    * Passing criteria: All 3 devices show similar RSSI
+    * Rectification: Ensure RF cabling and connectors are tightened, matched types, matched polarities and not damaged
+  - MQTT Uplink and MeshMap
+    - Ensure Fixed Position has been set on New Meshtastic Device
+    - Ensure MQTT Uplink is enabled on 1 other Meshtastic device
+    - Reset/reboot New Meshtastic Device to trigger a NodeInfo/Location/Telemetry broadcast
+    * Passing criteria: Node appears on [[https://meshmap.lucifernet.com/|MeshMap]] or [[https://meshmap2.lucifernet.com/|MeshMap2]] at installation site
+    * Rectification: Ensure the following configuration is set, ''lora.configOkToMqtt: true''
+  - RTL-SDR Survey
+    - Center [[https://airspy.com/download/|SDR#]] waterfall on 919–924 MHz
+    - Take a screenshot
+    * Passing criteria: LoRa transmissions at 922.875((
+default frequency slot for MY_919 LongFast
+)) are visually distinct from background noise
+===== Long Term Health Monitoring =====
+  - Check [[https://meshmap.lucifernet.com/|MeshMap]] or [[https://meshmap2.lucifernet.com/|MeshMap2]] to confirm node is alive
+    - Check ChUtil and AirtimeUtil statistics, if they are consistently above 25% the mesh may be unhealthy (overloaded)
+    - Check battery voltage statistics, ensure solar is sufficient to keep battery topped off
