How does the range of such SX1276-based gateway compare to "true" gateways?
(Lacking any TTN in my area, I'm trying to figure out if the bad range I get is caused by my node or my single channel gateway. I tried many spreading factors, all on channel 0, and both gateway and node are using a HopeRF RFM95W with a solid 8.6 cm wire soldered on the board as an antenna, with no explicit ground plane—which might be bad? All fine when in close range, but the maximum range is some 200 to 250 meters... But maybe that's all to be expected?)
