The fourth value is the transmit coding rate. This example uses CR5, but LoRa OTA does not require CR5.
`tempradio` is not saved and the node returns to its normal radio settings when the window ends or the node
reboots. This frequency is intended for North American configurations. Confirm that it is permitted in your
location and change it when necessary.

All participating nodes must use exactly the same frequency, bandwidth, spreading factor, and coding rate.
Their time windows must overlap. Start with the farthest hop (the destination) and work back toward the source
when using `tempradio`.

If you administer the destination over LoRa, the controller used to send later `ota` commands must also be
able to communicate on this temporary channel. For unattended nodes, use synchronized `tempradioat` entries
