No that is the full log from the GW. Damn...all my radiomodules have this blob like this one on the left picture.
I have also tested other NRF receivers (with the blob) -
Oh ok. Thanks.
I tried to attach 100uF capacitor but the results are same.(no reply) . The node ID is defined, the parent ID isnt.
It seems that im out of ideas. I wait for the new nrf24 without pa lna.
Im attaching some pictures about the project.
Should i foil the nrf24 modul?https://cloud.freeforall.hu/owncloud/public.php?service=files&t=1f73fddc20c6d9a2560f88f78affd499

I can't see the link but I trying to foil the radio module could be an idea, as I wrote a few posts earlier

Dear Gohan!
I have just tried the new nrf24 standard, and it works!
It seems that the GND should be common (im newbie).
I would like to test further with the pa+lna version, but....
I have an other question.
I would like to power the board with 5V from the power module 5V output, and i would like to program the board via USB at the same time. How should i connect the power module to the board? -
Dear Gohan!
Everyone suggests that if you use pa+lna version you should power it from external regulated 3.3 V because the arduino clones 3.3V isnt strong enough. So i bought externaI power source.... i have figured out today that i can common the power source's gnd with the arduino gnd. It is working....What is last that i would like to power the arduino uno from power module 5V and connect it to my computer same time... i dont know how to do it.
I have tested the two nrf24 pa+lna and these arent working together only. Separately is OK.
I will go with the standard nrf24 , make it working than i will try to buy branded nrf24 pa+lna.
Have you got favourite brand for cheaper electronic parts? -
Not really an external power source, you can just use the 5V output from the arduino and use a voltage regulator to 3.3v.
I bought some of these http://www.gearbest.com/transmitters-receivers-module/pp_453011.html and I am very happy as they allow for quick swap of the radio and already have caps -

Thank you for your help. I will buy from ebay this one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/200960749614
And im planning that i will buy a shielded nrf24 pa+lna .
Today im installing an openhab and try to transfer the datas from gateway to the openhab...What projects have you done already?
Best regards

I probably missed that because I never seen the caps being specified
If they work, good find
On ebay, i cant find the bypass capacitor in the specs. I have written to a seller asked about it. I will report to you about the answer.
I have tried once again the two high power nrf24 pa+lna (I put foil onto these) but these dont work. I think these are broken or very very bad ones.
Could you suggest to me a seller who sells High power nrf24 which ones you have got good experinces?
Thanks,

Hi rejoe2!
What kind of nrf24 do you use, and where did you buy these?
I think that you use capacitor as well, and stable 3.3V dont you?
Do you think that this shield is good for my node? It would be very good if i didnt have to use cables for nrf24....

I use nRF-Modules in the "normal" format and several pa+nla-Variants,. The first ones I probably bought from the ebay source mentionned on the mysensors-site (build-page), but by now, I may have used parts from around 4-5 different ebay-sellers as source. They look different, but until now, I only got "non-blob"-modules which all seemed to work reliably in the end. One time, I really was convinced to have bought fake and bad ones, but in the end it turned out these problems where mainly sw-related.For powering, I initially used AMS1117-only-Modules and additional caps, but using the above adaptor-modules made things much easier, as they have all relevant parts on-board (3.3V+caps, space is no problem in my personal use-cases).
Fyi: As I now prefer wires over rf, I'm about to replace most of my nodes by RS485-variants.
