Hi all,
I have ordered a 315Mhz module for a specific arduino project (see screenshot). Everything works fine if this module is placed close to the 315Mhz receiver. But I have to extend the range by 10 meters or so. Any suggestions how I can achieve this?
Cheers
Dennis
Use a proper antenna. Straight wires 24 cm long on both TX and RX will work. The antennas should be parallel to each other for best range.
Much better, use a balanced dipole, with one inner end connected to ANT and the other to GND on both. 48 cm from tip to tip as shown below.

Better antenna as suggested probably.
But you did only say extend the range by 10M or so, how much better an antenna you need depends on what range you currently get, 5M or 100M ?
