The LoRaSerial kit is not working as expected. When my pair of F9Ps are connected directly via UART2, I’m consistently getting RTCM corrections every second. When I connect to the LoRa Serial devices (that are only a few feet apart), I’m getting corrections sporadically. Sometimes as much as 20 seconds between updates.

Thanks in advance -  
Jay

You might be overloading 'em

[Maybe try swapping over to multipoint mode](https://docs.sparkfun.com/SparkFun_LoRaSerial/operating_modes/)? Or slow things down

Thanks TS. I’ll do some testing today on different baud rates.
