I'm using an APC220 in my project to monitor my driveway gate. The antenna that came with it is good, but has a right-angle connector.
That makes the box to put the transmitter in much larger than I would like to use. If I had a straight connection I could use a bit of conduit which is much less obtrusive.
Can I use any 433MHz antenna, or is there a requirement for the antenna to be at right angles to the board?
