There is no transmit power on T096 with new 1.17 firmware. confirmed on 3 boards. also, fem will force on when flashed

I'm also seeing this issue. Even when I'm a couple feet from each other, nothing is see from it.

I also observed this behavior. Companion node works fine on 1.17. I flashed the repeater back to 1.16 and all is well. I also notice you can set the tx power pretty much arbitrarily and it doesn't make a difference. I could log into the repeater with the companion beside the repeater but move it away say 30-40' and couldn't even ping it.

Having the same issue here. 2 different T096 boards and pretty much zero output power with this latest firmware. Flashed back to 1.16 and showing 28.8 dBm output power on the current board I have hooked up.
