Re: Increase range of FS1000A by increase voltage to 12V

Ok, do anyone know of a trusted source for FS100A?

Also, does anyone has experience with the HC-12 SI4463 before?

Re: Increase range of FS1000A by increase voltage to 12V

Still no luck. FS1000A seems to work only at 5V.

I found a old transmitter labelled 'KST-TX01' and it seems to have better range.

Anyone tried a 'HC-12 SI4463' before?
If so, better range?

Re: Increase range of FS1000A by increase voltage to 12V

Hmmm, yes, data, I have no idea as I do not have the right equipment to verify. The only thing is, if directly driven from d15, my RF switches can be controlled and responding; when I do 12v, no responses. I added capacitor and the result is still the same. I tried to increase the cables length of t...

Thank you very much, Justblair.

I will test it again once I find some capacitors..

Re: Increase range of FS1000A by increase voltage to 12V

Thank you, justblair For testing, I have connected 12V directly to the VCC of the FS1000A and it is not working. FS1000A was not destroyed as when I revert to original connection, it works again. So, I am not really sure what am I doing wrong here. Is it because of the ground? Or, is my FS1000A not ...

Re: Which antenna to increase the poor nominal range 7m

433 MHz diapole.

Any photos to illustrate what it actually look like?

Increase range of FS1000A by increase voltage to 12V

Increase range of FS1000A transmitter by increase voltage to 12V? I tried using a 12V power adaptor and also a DC-DC step up from 5V. Not working. I noticed that the Vcc of the transmitter is connected D15 of the Arduino Mega. I have tried all sorts of ways like tying the grounds together, boosting ...
