Installed to contribute to Flight Radar - unbelievable range, way better than I'd have expected. A good quality product.

A well made aerial with some good performance. Installed on a 5m pole on the end of one of my buildings, so up at about 10m, fed with LDF4-50A, to a RTL dongle.

This actually works better than expected. It's increased my range by 100 miles compared with my homemade 1/4 wave dipole and doubledthe number of datpointsl. Thanks again for excellent service

Looks very solid and well-made, and is performing very well so far. I've not mounted this outside yet due to horrendous weather lately but, even indoors, this has greatly improved the tracking range! I'm using this with a DVB-T USB stick with RTL2832U chipset, via 3m of cable and an SMA to MCX adapter and it works well for that application.

Doubled the reception range on my Flight Tracker -you will need a MCX Male To SMA Female to go with the cable (they are Type-N Male to SMA Male) if you are using a USB ADS-B receiver dongle.

Solid construction. screw terminal capped to prevent damage in transit. Seems to be a decent upgrade compared to the basic wire antenna that came with my ADS-B dongle. Docked one star for the price as it could be a little cheaper (I was lucky to get mine on a 25% discount at the time)
