AirNav ADS-B 1090 MHz Outdoor Antenna with SMA Connector

Ok, lets give this antenna a fair comparison. The kit I'm using is a Raspberry Pi4, running Bookworm and PiAware 10.1, both supported by FlightAware - no need to be a Linux geek here. Receiver is the FlightAware Plus (which has the filter in it), and the existing antenna is the YILIANDUO 5DBi 1090MHz Antenna SMA Male Plug Indoor ADS-B Aerial with Magnetic Base RG174, which is sitting on a first-floor window sill, facing East. Living in Kettering as I do, almost all the ADS signals I've been receiving to date have been within a 50-mile radius of me. I put this antenna (vertically) alongside the existing one and changed over the connectors. Within a few minutes, I was picking up signals from 60-70 miles away, and this now seems to have settled down to some 85% within the 100-mile radius, however, the remaining 15% fall within the 100-150 mile range, meaning I now cover most of England and Wales - I do regularly see signals from aircraft North of Anglesea, and track others right out into the North Sea. At this stage, the antenna is still only on the window sill All in all, definately a worthwhile investment. EDIT: Taken an alternative fixing method for the time being - I've used 4 aquarium heater suckers, with ty-wraps to secure the antenna to the outside of the window - I do very occasionaly recieve signals from the 200-250Nm range - looking forward to getting it mounted on the tv mast above the ridge line.

Ottima antenna fatta bene con 10m di cavo intestato,provata interno abitazione ricezione buona,prossimamente la installero' sul tetto per migliorare l'rx

deze ads-b antenne werkt perfect en is makkelijk aansluitbaar via de sma connector aan het einde van de kabel. aan de antenne zelf is de kabel fabrieksmatig vast gemaakt, zo kan die niet loskomen en ook niet roesten. top product!

Vengo de otra antena con resultados infinitamente peores. Mi ubicación no es la mejor, pero aún así tengo datos de cientos de kilómetros de distancia. Merece la pena la inversión.

I have 7 flightaware antennas and they works ver well. I bought one AirNav Antenna and after one month I saw same performance that flightaware antenna, with difference that cable length is 10 m (my flightaware system has 4,5 m length), then I can put my decoder and rpi inside my house, and is cheaper than flightaware system (AirNav antenna with cable $50; flightaware antenna and LR400 cable I spent $75)... I recommend this antenna!
