Re: Antenna Hack of Motion Sensor
I used the same hack I tryed on a DS10a on the motion sensor and got a bit better response, but doubt if 300 yards. You might try a full wavelength antenna, but if I understand correctly that would need a grounded "reflector" at some specific distance from the antenna. Didn't bother researching that, as it seemed more trouble than it was worth. You can check out some of my antenna mods at http://web.me.com/dougyk.

I wonder if anyone here has ever attempted an antenna hack of the MR14A motion sensor with the objective of achieving an increase in range?
I would like to use MR14's in a detached building about 300 line-of-sight yards away from the W800 antenna. I do not want to make the W800 antenna directional so this seems to be the only alternative way to achieve improved range.
Thanks — Jack
