I've been having some fun messing with my recently received Heltec Esp32 w/Lora.wifi, oled, etc.
Been testing the examples in the Arduino IDE with the espressif libs, all is working after a few setup hiccups.
As tested out of the box with the cheapo antennas and no case or shielding, I can send and receive about 1/2 mile ( .8 kilometer ), hoping to extend this range.

I wish I could get half a mile. I just started playing with a pair of these and the included "2db" antennas this weekend, and I cannot even go through one interior wall + 20 feet without losing data. RSSI is shown as -88db on the receiver and the counter number that I'm transmitting is not reliably updated.
