Record breaking LoRa distances noted in Europe #LoRa #Radio #IoT #InternetOfThings

Paul at Rent-a-Pilot Aeronautics writes about some record breaking LoRa radio transmission distances noted in Europe. The heat isn’t the only thing setting record numbers (but is it helping radio ranges??)

It is high summer in Europe with record-breaking temperatures (again) today. Also we are seeing record-breaking ranges on LORA trackers.

Below is one of the gps-nodes on the Things network that rides along in a delivery truck. It recorded a transmission 180 km to Middelburg!

Paul was investigating the traffic to his gateway and found a blip from an unusual distance. After following it back to the source, he found this:
