The GC1109 FEM needs its VFEM_Ctrl pin held HIGH during deep sleep
to keep the LNA active, enabling proper RX sensitivity for
wake-on-packet. Without this, the LNA is unpowered during sleep
and RX wake sensitivity is degraded by ~17dB.
Release RTC holds in begin() after configuring GPIO registers
(not before) to ensure glitch-free pin transitions on wake.
Trade-off: ~6.5mA additional sleep current for significantly
improved wake-on-packet range.
This change addresses two issues. The first is that the
LilyGo_TLora_V2_1_1_6_terminal_chat build would try to compile
simple_repeater/MyMesh.cpp. All other examples of terminal chat
targets are instead building simple_secure_chat/main.cpp . This
change would align this build to the rest of the builds.
The second issue, found during the course of investigating the
first, stems from simple_repeater/MyMesh.cpp using the
MAX_NEIGHBOURS #define to control whether the neighbor list is kept.
Repeaters that keep this list must define this value, and if the
value is not defined, then all neighbor-related functionality is
compiled out. However, the code that replies to
REQ_TYPE_GET_NEIGHBOURS did not properly check for this #define,
and thus any target that compiles simple_repeater/MyMesh.cpp
without defining MAX_NEIGHBOURS would get an undefined variable
compilation error.
As a practical matter though, there are no targets that compile
simple_repeater/MyMesh.cpp AND do not define MAX_NEIGHBOURS,
except this build due to the first issue. As a result, the
second issue is addressed only as a matter of completeness. The
expected behavior with this change is that such a repeater would
send a valid reply indicating zero known neighbors.
Sensors connected via the Grove I2C connector (D18/D17) were not detected
because the firmware scanned the OLED I2C bus (Wire, D14/D15) by default.
Adding ENV_PIN_SDA/SCL flags directs EnvironmentSensorManager to use Wire1,
matching the physical Grove connector pinout.

- Trigger noise floor calibration every 2s and AGC reset every 30s in main loop.
- Reorder loop to match Dispatcher: calibrate + radio.loop() before AGC reset
and recvRaw() so RSSI is never sampled right after startReceive().
- Update protocol doc with calibration intervals and typical noise floor range.
- Variant platformio.ini updates (heltec_v3, rak4631).
