MeshMonitor v4.17.0-rc3

Summary

This release candidate adds cross-source correlation: when one of your radios is heard by another of your sources, MeshMonitor now says so. The Unified Packet Monitor tags those packets and can filter on them, the Coverage Report marks fixes sent by your own sources, and both maps gain an opt-in Show Cross-Source Links layer. MeshCore repeaters attached over serial now turn the adverts they hear into Nodes and decrypt channel messages with keys you already hold; a message is shown only to users who can read a channel with that key. The Channel Database stores MeshCore channel secrets next to Meshtastic keys, with a one-time import from a MeshCore device. Message Forwarding gets a per-source master switch, a FWD pill on the source card, and an automation action. A new Live Mesh Activity dashboard widget lists the remote nodes a source heard in the last few minutes.

LoRa modem presets are corrected and extended: LONG_TURBO shows CR 4/8, the TINY presets and new regions are listed, firmware 2.8 per-region preset rules are enforced, and a LongModTurbo recipe is offered for custom settings. Fixes cover appearance settings changing on their own, CARTO keys on report maps, the map repeating the world when zoomed out, 3-byte MeshCore Define Path, and coverage survey conflicts.

Features

• Cross-source correlation: Unified Packet Monitor tags and filter, Coverage Report flags (#5573)

• MeshCore: virtual channels in the Channel Database, with import from a device (#5576)
• Forwarding: source-level master switch, sidebar FWD pill, automation action (#5572)
• Dashboard: Live Mesh Activity widget (#5570)

Bug Fixes

• LoRa: correct modem preset tables, add TINY presets, firmware 2.8 region rules, LongModTurbo recipe (#5571)
• Settings: appearance and UI preferences are global-only (#5569)
• MeshCore: 3-byte Define Path, shared telemetry labels, local-node favorites (#5566)
• Map: CARTO key on report maps, one-world clamp, coverage overlap chooser (#5565)
• Coverage: select the blocking live survey on SURVEY_ALREADY_LIVE (#5562)

Issues Resolved

#5537, #5543, #5544, #5546, #5547, #5548, #5549, #5550, #5551, #5552, #5553, #5554, #5555, #5556, #5557, #5558, #5559, #5560, #5561

Upgrade Notes

• Migrations 189–193 run on first start. 189 removes per-source copies of appearance and UI preferences; if a source held a value that differed from the global one, the promotion rule in #5569 decides which is kept.
• Cross-source map links start filling after the upgrade; there is no backfill.
• New MeshCore entries in the Channel Database start with no user access. Grant it under Users.
