    I still have one one of those. It was a Christmas present from my long gone aunt and I still enjoy playing it now and then. There's a little video where you can see a little example which was recorded using the memory feature on my channel, including some background noise from my neighbour's renovation work at the end 😂. I hope you enjoy your keyboard. Regards.

    • @backofficeshow

      Hey Custardo!!! That makes sense, as it's two wires it cannot react to the axis (and it's mono anyway) so perhaps the three connections give it a bit more sideways wobble.

    Pro tip: don't use 9V battery in these testers, the wiring and PCBs inside the joysticks might not like this high of a voltage and heat up causing damage to it. Get 3V LEDs and 2 AA batteries instead.

    Tuning only the antenna does not make sense, since the feeder has an additional influence. Specifically on the Heltec Lora Tracker board, this short feeder shifts the frequency with the lowest SWR above 900 MHz. Moreover, these distortions in the radio path also depend on the bending of the feeder. When operating at a frequency of 868 MHz, the range of the device did not exceed 500 meters. When I resoldered the board and got rid of the feeder, the communication range in the forest was already 10 km.
