In furtherance of the experiment, I grabbed a PCB antenna and a couple of 6’ lengths of RG-58 from Amazon for about $15, and it seems to work significantly better… as expected? I used a very professional painters tape mount to the window… the connector on the antenna is not a bulkhead type with the long threads; I will find some kind of small bracket and use double sided tape.
Started to get some planes in the 200-250NM range for the first time!
