I have a program that runs fine on an ESP32. the aggravation is, I end up duplicating a portion of a PC or laptop, and I use a PC or laptop to read the serial monitor
The PC already has network, RTC, sound and SD card capability. I can get GPS and LoRa USB dongles. If I can port the program to the PC or a RPi I can eliminate hours of exasperating finicky mechanical construction and make the device I am constructing accessible to a wider audience
it's called the Large Property Perimeter Monitor. It is an intrusion detection system for southwestern ranches. low power and no towers is better match to LoRa
