The latest Zniffer firmware allows selecting LR channels (Classic + A, Classic + B, A + B). We should add support for that.

Any chance this would expose channel 3 background RSSI value in HA? Currently I noticed that only 0, 1, 2 background RSSI values get polled with my controller.

Zniffer is unrelated to your issue. Channel 3 is Z-Wave Long Range and only "exists" when your controller is set to an LR capable region.

Weird. It's definitely set to US LR since 67 of my 93 devices are currently included via LR.
The background RSSI channel 3 value shows up in Z-Wave JS logs, but HA for some reason doesn't even pick it up (just 0-2)...

The background RSSI sensors are statically defined, not discovered.

If you are looking to contribute a PR, this would be an easy one. However, it does possibly present a complication: without a way to discover the number of supported channels, simply adding a 4th channel will result in a non-functional entity for non-LR regions. Whether the HA core devs care about that, I can't say. Alternatively, the linked code would need to be re-written to dynamically add the sensors as the statistics are received, but this may result in unavailable entities until stats are received (not sure).
