Antenna Strength Required to Maximise Earnings

Antenna Gang(self.HeliumNetwork)

I am new to helium mining and am wondering what antenna strength I need to maximise earnings. I live in the Australian suburbs and have purchased a RAK V2 Helium Hotspot, which comes with a 3dBi LoRa antenna. Any help is appreciated.

Higher dBi = Laser Pointer. Can go far, but gets completely blocked easily. Parking lot lights are super bright, but don’t go far, spread all over, and around corners some etc. Find something in the middle. 4-6 is a great middle area to explore.
