General Discussion / Re: Tuning the DVB Antenna for 1090MHz Specific reception
« on: September 29, 2018, 04:05:05 pm »
Hi all,
just to add a little more info on this subject, I've just done a 'before and after' check by using a shortened DVB-T 'whip' aerial as suggested in the original post. The screenshot show the increased detection range achieved by shortening the aerial to 50mm.
For info, my reason for doing so was mainly to aid installation into a pa28 rather than increased detection but it's a nice 'bonus' to achieve as well as making the system more compact for installation.
Thanks,
Sam
