tested 374.43 (fork), 374.43 (merlin), latest stock 376.3602, and latest merlin 376.49.
firmwares after 374.43 will have a slider from 0-100%.
374.43 and older will have a number box with 0-200.
signal strength dbm gain is highest with default settings on 374.43 (fork) and (merlin).
i checked with inssider.
on 374.43, dbm gain goes down to -45
while on other firmware, its around -50-53.
why is that?
also tx power dont seem to make a difference after 80. but i can see difference if i reduce to 10 tx power.
if 10 tx power = -65 dbm.
80 tx power = -45 dbm.
100 tx power = -45
200 and 500 tx power still -45 dbm.
why newer firmware makes dbm signal strength weaker? (even at 100% tx power)?
