Being at the top of the leader board UK :-/
Yes I know what people say, but I am actually lucky enough to have a reasonable location.
I am still on old kit, (rtlsdr’s/ odroids etc) and if it wasn’t for Keith lowering his antenna to do repairs and lifty conditions this summer, I would not be up there.
I actually only run 2 sites, as my wife has the other two (but on the same internet link and in my name) and has now regained her interest with no help from me.
So I am enjoying just being where I am, but is not why I started this hobby, just wanted to see just how far I could pick up aircraft from where I live and log my flying as I hold a PPL as take to the skies on occasions throughout the year
Have seen some amazing odd aircraft fly over my qth using this, and as a former aircraft spotter (dont log any aircraft anymore) kept myself busy throughout the pandemic as was locked down for 10 months
Regarding my set up, have found a happy medium and just leave my sites running and just do updates when required without tweeking
I firmly beleive to just enjoy what you do, and track as much as you can for fun.
Best hobby ever in my opinion, saves me from scanning the skies with binoculars lol
All the best, and happy tracking
