While waiting for proper batteries and antennas I put something together and threw it in my backpack. As there are not many The Things Network gateways in Bucharest, I used Helium for this test. There is excellent Helium coverage and the Quectel L80 module got a lock in the car, on buses, trams, even on the couch in my living room.
