I do not report precise location to the unencrypted channel which is primary, but I do report a general. I have precise location set on a private channel. Home assistant is using the broadcasted general location, to get the more precise location, the node must be polled on that channel.
Describe the solution you'd like
It would be nice to be able to designate a channel to use to poll nodes on an interval and/or when a position broadcast is received on the primary channel (that way you can take advantage of smart position updates? Also the interval option could only apply if the smart position method has not fired for the timer period to not duplicate polls?)
Describe alternatives you've considered
As an alternative, maybe I could request the position of a node on the channel that allows more accurate positioning? I could make an automation that listens for the regular update and sends a request for better accuracy? The issue is that there would be inaccurate then accurate location which could throw off zone detection.
Additional context
The first solution would be nicer, as we could drop the less accurate report and just report the more accurate one.
