&lt;p&gt;Secondly, a return from nrf_gzll_add_packet_to_tx_fifo() does not mean that the packet is sent.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Maybe you can try what is described in Øyvind&amp;#39;s answer &lt;a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/question/41164/receive-enable-control-timing-of-power-amplifier/"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
