AirNav RadarBox and RadarBox24.com Discussion / Problems with new AirNav RadarBox 1090 Antenna
« Last post by Dennis Ro on Today at 07:20:21 AM »Hello, Flighttrackers :)
Since last week I have a running Raspberry Pi with Radarbox Feeder.
The RPi is outside on my Balcony, safe from rain and anything in a box. The first week I only had a indoor antenna. I know, that my balcony is not the best position to put an antenna on, but it's the only spot, where I can place it, because it is not my house.
So I wanted to improve my reception and bought the outdoor antenna Airnav Radarbox 1090.
The problem now is: With my little indoor Antenna I got abpout 100nm + reception and with the new way bigger antenna it's only about 40 nm and it sees much less aircrafts in the air.
I've made the setup twice, put every cable off and on again to check if I've made a mistake but it's not better.
I hope, someone could help me here. I really had hoped to get a better reception :(
The Dongle I'm using is Nooelec RTL-SDR v5 SDR.
The little indoor Antenna was Nooelec RaTLSnake M6 v2
New Antenna is this: https://shop.radarbox.com/collections/adsb-receivers/products/airnav-ads-b-1090-mhz-outdoor-antenna-with-sma-connector
Any help is really appreciated.
