RE: nRF52840 Coded PHY with ble_advertising

Hi!

You should be able to use coded phy with the ble_advertising module.

There is a lot of Q&A's around devzone regarding long range, so you should be able to find a lot of useful information.

This thread might be of interest for you:
https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/34543/ble-long-range

Specifically see Kenneth's answer:
"Hopefully you can make it work. Seems like different engineers like to do it differently, some use the ble_advertisment module to handle the advertisment, while other use the softdevice api to setup advertisment directly without the ble_advertisment module to handle the advertisment."

Also, I would suggest that you take a look at the blog-post that Kenneth refers to in one of his answers;
Testing Long Range (Coded PHY) with Nordic solution (It Simply Works)

Best regards,
Joakim.
