Description

I think there are several ways lost and found mode could be improved:

  • Reduce power in lost and found mode
  • Enable precise location to avoid sending imprecise locations
  • Reduce battery usage (Could stop forwarding packets)
  • Allow position requests
  • Make the node emit RF in a way to make it easier to direction find by making it a unique signal. (Doesn’t have to be Lora)
