Thanks! I already tested lots of them, never reach the specifications, I think when Poc V11 os in we need better ‘‘ears’’ …so far my project is working great, a witness around 1Km away got me with 5.5db ! That’s a lot!!

This antenna worked fine for me: Aurel GP 868 Ground Plane Antenne, A043 | voelkner

and 1 km for LoRaWAN is no problem link budget about 150 dBi! and another cheap solution is SF9 instead of SF7!
