Hello,
I have bought a NEO-6M GPS module, and I came with two antennas, one is larger and the cable is longer than the other. What difference do they have? Which of them should I use?
My project is an alarm system (GPS + gprs + Arduino) when someone moves a beehive.

hi 92,
I would use the higher gain antenna, the bigger one.
You don't know the location of hive after it has been 'stolen', it maybe in a poor reception area.

What are you going to use to actually detect any hive movement, as its being 'stolen'.?

If you post the technical details of the antenna modules, it would help.
