A little more experimenting with my outdoor Meshtastic node. I realised that trying to mount it anywhere accessible on the house wasn’t going to get above trees and other houses so trying it on a telescopic 4.5 metre mast with a short coax run to the antenna. It seems to work ok although I need to get a better mounting bracket rather than using cable ties. I still can’t see any other nodes from my home though apart from my own.. I need to do some range testing with my own nodes to see if I am actually getting better reach with this set up.
