@Fleischtorte Sweet!! This I can do. I'll make the changes and start testing tonight. thanks for the explicit help.

@Fleischtorte
thanks for the details, I'll look into it, as soon as I have my RFM69 GW talking to my RFM69 node -

@Fleischtorte is your code example working ? I mean do you see the RSSI going down to -70 ?
Cause on this page https://lowpowerlab.com/2015/11/11/rfm69_atc-automatic-transmission-control/ Felix says we must use a radio.sendwithretry ?!
I'm a little confused it not working so I'm digging -
@Fleischtorte Sweet!! This I can do. I'll make the changes and start testing tonight. thanks for the explicit help.

@BenCranston did you get it to work ?
-
@Frencho radio.sendwithretry is used (see line 53 in libraries/MySensors/core/MyTransportRFM69.cpp) and ATC must be enabled on GW/Node (use _radio.enableAutoPower(-70); only on the node side).
It seems you need continous traffic to see the effect of ATC (i use a simple relay sketch which reports the rssi with every switch command). -
hi ,
it works but not very stable... after a while the sensors become offline so i revert to the stable version of MySensors.
