I’ve posted my setup before, but it won’t hurt posting it again:
- FA antenna
- FA Pro Stick (orange)
- FA SMA Filter (dark blue, model 2019)
- 5 m coax LMR200
This setup is running from inside 99% of the time. On sunny days I put the antenna outside.
View of the horizon is hardly possible in a downtown city center.
To give you an impression, I’m somewhere at the green arrow:
Highrise next to me to the north & NW; even higher at 100m to the SW; multiple GSM-masts around; etc.
Here’s a view of my total range over the last couple of 4 months, exported from VRS:
After more than 3 years running an ADS-B receiver, I’m pretty sure it won’t get better than this without jumping hoops (aka drilling holes in my house) to put the mast outside 24/7.
Well… as long as I get the FlightRadar24 free business account I’m happy with this.
