Description

Hi,

I've connected only one antenna (main) so I see [-56, -95]
How to disable auxilary antenna and only use main?
The datasheet seems to let the possibility to choose. How to do it from command line? Or dts?
Which is impact the impact to have to antenna defined but only one used?

Thanks,

Research direction

Start in the MT76 C driver paths for MT7628 and MT7603 and consult the referenced datasheet for antenna-selection controls. Check whether command-line or DTS configuration is already exposed; done would be a supported way to use only the main antenna and explain the impact of leaving the auxiliary antenna defined.
