Hi All,
Couldn't do any work on this for the last two weeks, so today was my first 'distance capability' test.
Getting about 12m reliably outdoors, but the receiver needs to be pointing directly at the transmitter. I'm fairly certain that boosting the TX supply will get more range, but I'm not doing that until I'm more confident about the whole idea.
The beam spread of the transmitter seems to be about 90', so it looks like I'll need a circular array of receivers on the mobile, but again, I'm not doing that that just yet.
Next task is to get the distance measurement working.
That's more work in a hotel room !.
Cheers,
Buzby
