978 MHz Antenna

Almost identical physical construction as the Flightaware 1090 antenna that I have used for years. As soon as I had the Piaware receiver configured, I started getting UAT signals. It will take some time to get enough statistics to compare the coverage with 1090, keeping in mind that most UAT equipped aircraft fly a lot lower than the commercial 1090 aircraft.

Boosted my message count/rate and range. Just installed inside the attic and there is a very noticeable improvement in my stats.

Great antenna way better range but you will have to adjust the saturation level and gain to get it to work right on 978

It works maybe 30 to 35% better than the RB AirNav 978 antenna for plane range and position count, gets a few more planes too since the range is better.

Excellent build works as advertised
