Is there any way to increase the range of the Parallax Rf transcievers? 250 Ft seems aweful short a range compared to other transcievers.

    You could substitute a full size antenna for the little bitty stub antenna supplied with the transceivers. You could even substitute a larger tuned antenna (like a Yagi) for even more range. You can always get much much better range with a better antenna.

    Do remember that using a larger antenna is illegal. If you cause interference, you're the one at fault and you can be forced to stop using it.
