First real test of new coverage since the increased antenna height for RX on my LoRa APRS from the car back to the gateway, it’s massively improved the LoRa footprint.. it almost gets me all the way to work!

Further coverage testing to be carried out but initially it looks like a big win for coverage ad previously it would only get about half way before dropping off and the other one just about covering (limited cover on the second)

Following on from the previous post, I’ve put together a how-to get started with guide

sidx.org.uk/projects/lora-aprs

Basic setup to get started and programming the boards

Thanks to Ricardo for ongoing code dev on tracker & igate and team on web dev

Been a busy couple weeks doing some testing with LoRa and APRS on the 439.9125mhz channel in the 70cm band

With the successful tests now complete running only 100mw output on both the igate and tracker being fed into 5.5dbi antennas I’ve applied and been issued with a NoV from the ETCC for the station

MB7UKT is live and operational (with reduced output)
