I had to tweak this a bit to fit it into the build process. It's in the observer-firmware-dev branch now. |

The motherboard has two RF daughterboard slots on separate GPIOs, mirrored by its "LNA P" / "LNA S" jumpers, but the variant only ever pinned slot 1. The shared configuration moves into [Station_G3_ESP32_common], with the SPI and LNA lines split into per-slot sections. [Station_G3_ESP32] (slot 1) and [Station_G3_ESP32_r2] (slot 2) each compose common + their own pins, so neither set of -D flags has to shadow the other on the compile line - appending an override would work only by last-wins, and esp32_base's -w hides the resulting redefinition warning. Every pre-existing env keeps its name and resolves to byte-identical options; verified by diffing pio project config --json-output. PA PL1 is one board-level jumper shared by both slots, so P_PA1_EN stays in the common section along with the TX power calibration. Adds r2 twins of the repeater, room server and both observer envs, each an exact mirror of its slot-1 sibling apart from the base it extends. Slot 2 pins come from on-hardware testing in agessaman#49 and are not documented publicly; the vendor wiki serves no content to fetchers and Meshtastic implements slot 1 only. Known limitation, unchanged from that PR: GPIO 42 and 43 fall outside the ESP32-S3 RTC GPIO range (0-21), so the rtc_gpio_hold_en() calls in ESP32Board::enterDeepSleep() and StationG3Board::powerOff() return ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG on slot 2 and the NSS and LNA pins are not latched through deep sleep. Fixing it means gpio_hold_en() plus gpio_deep_sleep_hold_en() in shared code.

Added a new
variants/station_g3_esp32_rf2/platformio.iniconfiguration, which inherits the existing Station G3 environments and replaces only the RF2 slot-specific pin definitions. This avoids duplicating the Station G3 board implementation and allows future Station G3 firmware changes to continue applying to both RF slots.
