Very low Range [Heltec LoRa 32]

Hi Guys,

I have 3 of this [Heltec LoRa 32] boards.
I have ordered the 868 version (UK) but I received with 915MHz antenna.
So I’m not 100% sure if the hardware is different or it is just replace the antenna and set up the settings.
The chip is SX1276 / 1810 / 177906
I have tried all frequencies but the range is not longer than a few meters.
Can you help me to debug the problem.

Thank you in advance,
Antonio Reis

Antenna:

hmm - that antenna looks very short. It might be you have a 433mhz unit - which would give awful range when used with the 900mhzish frequencies…

I have tried with 433MHz also and the results are not better.
How can I debug it?

hmm - I just noticed it says 915 on the antenna case so I bet that is probably fine - strike my initial theory ;-).

Is the range bad on all three? (i.e. if you use A to talk to B or C, the range is horrible. And also if you use B to talk to C the range is horrible as well)

Can you take a look at the connector that the pigtail connects to the PCB? It’s possible that either the pig tail isn’t properly seated or the connector on the PCB is poorly soldered.
