Resistance:
•
Each obstacle: walls, windows, vegetation, stucco, concrete, and large metal objects will
reduce the effective signal range by about one-half.
•
Mounting your sensor on a metal fence can significantly reduce the effective signal range.
Interference:
•
Consider electronics in the signal path between the sensor and your station.
•
Simple relocation of the sensor or the station may correct an interference issue.
•
Windows can reflect the radio signal.
•
Metal will absorb the RF (radio frequency) signal.
•
Stucco held to the wall by a metal mesh will cause interference.
•
Transmitting antennas from: ham radios, emergency dispatch centers, airports, military
bases, etc. may cause interference.
•
Electrical wires, utilities, cables, etc. may create interference if too close.
