You probably already read this thread, but Ryan M. (AORPLS) had the PostCard Base/Rover working over LoRa. > [@RTK and Lora](https://community.sparkfun.com/t/rtk-and-lora/64197/17): > > @sparky I switched to P2P mode, ran a airspeed of 9600 and got about 300 feet down the street and my base is in my backyard and I strapped the omni antenna to the tripod leg (literally so terrible LOS) so I ordered a pole clamp so I can get it up higher and away from the tripod. I was curious wouldn’t it be a benefit to switch the jumper to 5v to feed the LORA the lipo battery voltage and help the power levels just a little bit more? Just in case you missed that thread when searching, but doubtful 🙂 --- _[View the full topic](https://community.sparkfun.com/t/postcard-base-rover-with-lora-serial-kit-setup-help/67745)._
