********************
Configures the Dual antenna functionallity. This function should be used only on the **ESP32-WROOM-DA** module or any other ESP32 with RF switch.
.. code-block:: arduino
bool setDualAntennaConfig(uint8_t gpio_ant1, uint8_t gpio_ant2, wifi_rx_ant_t rx_mode, wifi_tx_ant_t tx_mode);
* ``gpio_ant1`` Configure the GPIO number for the antenna 1 connected to the RF switch (default ``GPIO2`` on ESP32-WROOM-DA)
* ``gpio_ant2`` Configure the GPIO number for the antenna 2 connected to the RF switch (default ``GPIO25`` on ESP32-WROOM-DA)
* ``rx_mode`` Set the RX antenna mode. See wifi_rx_ant_t for the options.
* ``tx_mode`` Set the TX antenna mode. See wifi_tx_ant_t for the options.
Return ``true`` if the configuration was successful.
For the ``rx_mode`` you can use the following configuration:
* ``WIFI_RX_ANT0`` Selects the antenna 1 for all RX activity.
* ``WIFI_RX_ANT1`` Selects the antenna 2 for all RX activity.
* ``WIFI_RX_ANT_AUTO`` Selects the antenna for RX automatically.
For the ``tx_mode`` you can use the following configuration:
* ``WIFI_TX_ANT0`` Selects the antenna 1 for all TX activity.
* ``WIFI_TX_ANT1`` Selects the antenna 2 for all TX activity.
* ``WIFI_TX_ANT_AUTO`` Selects the antenna for TX automatically.

# WiFiScan Example
This example demonstrates how to use the WiFi library to scan available WiFi networks and print the results.
This example shows the basic functionality of the dual antenna capability.
# Supported Targets
This example is compatible with the ESP32-WROOM-DA.
## How to Use Example
* How to install the Arduino IDE: [Install Arduino IDE](https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/tree/master/docs/arduino-ide).
#### Using Arduino IDE
* Before Compile/Verify, select the correct board: `Tools -> Board`.
* Select the COM port: `Tools -> Port: xxx` where the `xxx` is the detected COM port.
#### Using Platform IO
* Select the COM port: `Devices` or set the `upload_port` option on the `platformio.ini` file.

## Troubleshooting
***Important: Be sure you're using a good quality USB cable and you have enough power source for your project.***
* **Programming Fail:** If the programming/flash procedure fails, try to reduce the serial connection speed.
* **COM port not detected:** Check the USB cable connection and the USB to Serial driver installation.
If the error persists, you can ask for help at the official [ESP32 forum](https://esp32.com) or see [Contribute](#contribute).

* This sketch demonstrates how to scan WiFi networks.
