GPIO 1 & 2 Used for Antenna Switching

If only one GPIO Output line is used for antenna control, the combinations of the available
output control line states (the GPIO line in use and the module port) result in a subset of
logical antenna settings which can be used.

ONLY GPIO 1 Used for Antenna Switching

Note

The “missing” logical antenna settings are still usable when only one GPIO
line is used for antenna control and simply results in redundant logical
antenna settings. For example, using only GPIO 1, logical setting 1 and 3
both result in GPIO1=Low and Micro port A1 active.
