Reboot Loop when enabling TX functionality

[Mane76]

Describe the bug
When enabling TX functionality of iGate the code compiles, but the esp32 is in an reboot loop. By changing the line lora_tx_enable to false everything works fine as before

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Download code status 18.05.2023 from master branch
2. adjust config file, wifi active, aprsis active, digi false, lora tx enable, ftp false, mqtt false, syslog true
3. compile, upload to device, upload file system image

Expected behavior
start as usual

looks like something is taking to long and the wathdog is restarting the esp.

can you post your exact configuration? please remove your personal data (callsign, wifi settings, aprs-is passcode)

Here we are...
when I change the "tx_enable" in section "lora" to "false" everything is working fine.
The frequency 433.781 is the correction of the offset of "my" module to the "real" RX/TX frequency.
As I see in the preview the formatting gets lost.

for me the LoRa-TX is working like a charm!

I have similar issue maybe with same board? Backtrace only when TX enabled, in RX mode, ok:

[ohanssen]

I have the same issue with a LoRa32 board.

[peterus]

issue was reproduced, fix is in: #303

[peterus]

@ohanssen @pinkolin @Mane76 please report back if TX is now working for you! will create based on the feedback a new release. Thank you very much!

[Mane76]

reboot loop is solved BUT

when "tx_enable": true no RX of tracker is possible
when "tx_enable": false a RX of tracker is possible

when "tx_enable": true everything which passes the filter set in section aprs-is is TXd

'73, Mane

[peterus]

@Mane76 I just tried to reproduce your issue, but couldn't. can you please retry again (delete flash first, than upload config and than firmware upload with monitoring)?
thanks!

[peterus]

@Mane76 are you using different frequencies for RX und TX? possible fix would be: #304

[Mane76]

@peterus, no, same frequencies for RX and TX.
I just cloned the repo fresh from github, same behaviour.

See serial output attached, 1st boot shows some corrupntess, then it reboots and starts up, independent if tx_enable" is true or false.
If false - RX works, if true - RX does not work.
