Hi<div></div><div>Would it be better to put the booster into the transmitter? too boost the signal range.</div><div></div><div>Jon</div>
<div>No ...The booster is made of a spare receiver board ...To boost the transmitter signal , you need to send more power to the transmitter antenna witch would drain your " AA " batteries faster anyhow ...You would probably also have to use a power transistor to acheive that ....</div><div>The main idea behind this thread is to recycle some unused receiver boards if you have any ...</div><div></div><div>As for testing the system with the transmitter antenna deployed half way inside my apartment ; it was another way to check if the booster was working or not ....</div><div></div><div>As for testing outside ; I would have first : to test the range with the booster ; second : redo the same test without the booster ....</div><div></div><div>So if one of you guys who knows the range of his tank outside ; has a spare receiver board and is willing to give it a try ; the feedback would be appreciated and would save me some time ....</div><div></div><div>As for me right now ; it's not that I became lazy ; but I 'm confined to my apartment for a while since I had a heart attact 3 weeks ago .... </div><div></div><div>But the mind is working just fine ....L.O.L.</div>
