NRF24, PA for nodes??

I have a master nrf24 broadcasting to many nodes (auto ack turned off).

  1. Does auto ack need to be turned off on all mcus? Broadcaster and receiver nodes?

  2. I am using a PA version (high power) for the broadcaster (ducky antennas). Do the receiver nodes need to use the PA versions as well? They will never send, only receive. I have ducky antennas on the receivers as well.

  1. If you turn off AA globally, you will have to in all nodes.

I would use one pipe for the broadcasts only, and only disable AA for broadcasts in the sender,
and on the receiving pipes of the receivers.

  1. If the slaves never send (this includes ackowledges) they will not use any PA.
