Scan and Advertise

Hi, 

I modified the ble_app_att_mtu_throughput example to scan and advertise simultaneously. I want to have two nRF52’s that can read each other’s advertisements and pull out the rssi information to detect proximity to one another.

The problem is, it doesn’t seem that either board picks up the other’s advertisements in their respective event handler. The boards do pick up the advertisements of other nearby devices, and my nRF Connect mobile app can see both boards advertisements.

Is there any way I can get the boards to see one another?

EDIT: By event handler, I mean there is no advertising report events coming up in the ble_evt_handler.
