From the project
version 4 of my on-going cat tracker project. this differs in structure in that both the TX collar and Rx homehub will be in the same repo to ensure intercompatability
KiCad projects and their supporting component models are grouped by product.
For GM02SP, GNSS/LTE antenna, and modem power decisions, start with the Walter/GM02SP source guide. Its Walter board specifications must be checked against the bare GM02SP and the production collar schematic before being used as PCB requirements.
