Report
April
9th - first contact with CC2520DK, testing factory code (packet error counting), the range seems to be sufficient with antenna (PCB antenna is not connected, it is a little bit confusing in schematic), test with running DC motor (model railway H0 1:87) nearby receiver (bad contact with sparkling), wireless communication is not affected, but program is sometimes corrupted because of sparkling
10th - simple sending packets via Smart RF Studio user guide page 112/113, firmware upgrade (evaluations boards + debugger) - one board without upgrade does not display messages from MSP, debugging of GenericApp (Coordinator + EndDevice)
