Hi Sam. Sorry for the delay in response. I get the reflector in digest mode, so I don't see postings sometimes for hours. I subscribe to so many reflectors on which 90% of the traffic is superfluous, that I am forced to use digest mode to keep the traffic at an acceptable level. A direct email or posting to the LP-PAN reflector would be faster.
You need to have the SDR app set to poll slightly slower than LP-Bridge. This is because polling from the SDR is passed through when it's running, and then some additional commands like SMH are added in LP-Bridge. This takes some additional time, and hence the slower polling rate in the SDR. I didn't play around much with the minimums in each program to see what differential is required, but the 250ms LPB / 300ms SDR that I normally use works fine here.
