I just face the SMA connectors toward each other a few inches apart. Works with AF11X as well.

I hope you turned tx power way down, else the food may not have been the only thing frying in that kitchen. Signal strength LEDs activate only when you are quite close to expected signal level so don't rely on them too much.

I was able access the remote radio and ping across with no issues from kitchen table to counter. I had no antennas or GPS connected. I never saw the LEDs for signal strength light up. These are the first units I have ever configured. Do I need to do anything to activate them? Tak Jaime Solorza </blockquote> </blockquote> </blockquote>
