Hello peeps!
We have a new plugin, the Range Test Plugin. It’s highly recommended that you test this out using two tbeams with good GPS reception. If you do end up using other boards or with a paired phone, please let us know what you did so we can keep track of what works.
There is one bug that I know of and that is if you enter a double quote in the message, it’l break the generated CSV. Other than that, it does work well and is relatively stable.
For the brave, the plugin is currently in the most recent (from the 18th onward) pre-pre Alpha nightly builds:

If you do install and use it, feedback would be greatly appreciated and if you find problems, there’s a good chance I’ll be able to fix it before the next official Alpha firmware. If it does work, please share your results!
To configure it, use the latest Meshtastic Python API – a new version was released a few days ago.
Here are instructions on how to use the plugin:
Here’s a sample output of the saved CSV file:
