Both firmware fixes are now confirmed over the air, with the sniffer board
capturing and asn1tools judging the result.
GN lifetime: our station transmits 0x05 (1 s), the value both bench stations
use, where the August captures show 0x83 (3200 s) for the same frames. 397 CAMs
from station 999999 decode and re-encode byte-identically, so the whole
transmit chain is right on the wire, not only in the host tests.
yawRateConfidence: the bench beacon, flashed to a spare board, sends CAMs that
decode and re-encode byte-identically as well (72 of 72 from station
0x0BADC0DE). NOTES.md now says how to flash that beacon and how to check what
it sends, including that it shares the phone pinger's MAC and the two are told
apart by station ID.
The new firmware also runs on the OBU with the phone attached: CAM, DENM and
SPATEM from the bench stations all keep decoding in the app now that messages
are cut to the length their header declares.
Signed reception stays open. The CiT One transmits unsigned and nothing else
here signs, so it needs real roadside traffic, the CiT One switched to signed
mode, or a replay firmware on a spare board.
Two bench facts worth not rediscovering are recorded too: opening COM3's
console resets the OBU and drops the phone's USB link, and every capture taken
before today is truncated at its first corrupted record, because the receiver's
console inserts a CR before every 0x0a byte of the binary pcap stream.
live_capture.py now undoes that, a change that lives in the receiver repo and
is not part of this commit.
