    At this time, yes. Having both (as well as having both on your sats around Kerbin) will allow you to connect to one of the sats around Kerbin to relay the signal. I'm pretty sure this is not intended however, and may change later, meaning that your Jool Sat may not work - I think the idea N70 is going for is that you should stack Low Gain antennas to reach all the way to Kerbin.

    Another option is to change the Default config as I did above: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AuFEM7_Fm5Ykg5Qe2BcJaj_f0c2hgw

    This will allow you to connect directly to Kerbin using a High Gain antenna, similar to how it worked in old Kerbalism.

    You posted that file before, but it is the Classic.cfg and does not say anything about Signal. Are you sure that is the correct file?

    I suppose there is a bug in data rate calculation, wich cause this behaviour of high-gain antennas

    The latest .dll in the gitlab fixes the issues I was having. Now to figure out how to get signal from the Mun to other ground stations besides the KSC; still having difficulty with relays.

  3. So wait.... Now the least powerful Antenna, the Communotron mini thing, has super-powerful relay capability that takes precedence over anything else? And the high-gains can now no longer transmit science, only telemetry? Is that right? I have a crummy little lander on the Mun with a deployable low-gain and deployable high-gain. When I click relay to 'yes' on the low-gain (which should not be able to reach Kerbin), all of my satellites around Kerbin suddenly connect to the KSC through the Mun lander's mini antenna. When I stow it away and use only the high-gain, I can control the Mun lander but the data rate says 'none' and I can't transmit any science.

    The real problem here is that you're only using one ground station. The recent release allowed for ground stations instead of just connecting to Kerbin in general. Again, keeping with the DSN analogy they have three main stations spread across the Earth so that at anytime one station is able to see a satellite that is not blocked by another body. Just add more ground stations. You'll still need to setup a relay satellite around Minmus if you want to stay in touch with Kerbin when a probe is blocked by Minmus itself, or you can just plan for that outage instead

    Wouldn't a better solution be to increase the range of some of the stations that exist already? However I have tried that (by changing the range in the default.cfg profile) but it doesn't seem to work.

  5. Hello, I'm loving how extensive this mod is so far. I'm having an issue with the Historical Progression Contract Pack though - if the contract says I need to have an antenna, as long as the Signal feature is enabled, the antennas don't trigger that part of the contract as complete. When I disabled the Signal feature in the config, the antennas were recognized. So I assume it must be something in Signal.cfg but I am not sure what I would need to change.
