  • I have checked the documentation to verify this feature doesn't already exist

Problem Statement

When using the site planer as new comer to meshtastic, I would be interested to have some presets with the technical specs for common devices with which people start to tinker with meshtastic. For example, it would be nice to be able to say "I picked up a heltech v3 with it's basic antenna, I don't know the Power or Antenna Gain (dB) parameters, can you prefill those for me ?"

This would be a nice approximation to help people with little radio knowledge to plan an experiment such as "hey you have a lilygo t-beam and I have a heltech v3, with their not-optimal factory antennas, if we are here and here, can our devices talk to each other ? "

Proposed Solution

Provide a drop down with common devices (found in the flash database) that prefills the form fields.
