On last week's The Great Search (https://youtu.be/cB32kaMpqI0), we wanted to find a way to connect a whip-style antenna to our 915 MHz ISM Band Feather boards with either RFM69 or LoRa modules. We started by finding uFL to SMA adapter cables, with great success.
Now we get onto the antenna part! to do range testing, lets get some nice big 915 MHz antennas with SMA connectors and with tiltable angle so that we can send and receive data from miles away!
Digi-Key stocks thousands of antennas, but we can narrow down our search to one that fits our requirements, while also learning about gain and VSWR ratings.
