Does anyone have any diagrams for the 'RF Lobes' of the on-board antenna of a Pico W ?
And any tips for improving range or directionality, whether metal baffles, above, below, alongside or behind the board, help, attached to 0V/GND or whatever.
For directionality and omni-directionality, is it better to mount a Pico W vertically, horizontally, upright or flat ?
I don't have any RF test gear and the best I can tell from experimenting with watching bars on a mobile phone, other Pico W reporting RSSI is 'it's hard to tell'. I looked at the FCC reports but couldn't find anything useful.
