Deaf

[FraserSoft]

Hi I did a quick search but found nothing obvious, I am getting the feeling that my ANRB has gone quite deaf over the last month or so. At first I thought it might have been conditions but when I put up my dedicated Watson 1090 MHz ADSB aerial up I was getting about 40-60 aircraft showing with a maximum distance of about 175nm. For the last few weeks I have getting about 8 aircraft and maximum distance has been about 30nm. I am located about 15 miles from Newcastle Airport.
Thanks
Alec

Hi check your connections both ends sma plugs are a bit of a pain to get right sometimes,on the Watson when you fasten the stub mast to the aerial put a strip of s/a tape around the top of the stub mast just unders the radials I`ve had some water ingress at this point on mine in the past

Or a hefty smear of silicon grease

Try another aerial as well to see if it makes a difference

I don't know how long you've had your box, but they do have a 2 year guarantee, and all early boxes are covered for SAW filter failure. Contact Support to check on this.
