Hello there.
About a month ago I have successfully installed my receiver (T-LIPD17). It is made out of raspberry pi 3 model b, RTL2832 USB chip, and custom antenna (will include some pictures). There is 20W (5V 4A) power supply connected to the raspberry micro USB port and 1m CAT 6 cable between raspberry and router. There is a heatsink without fan on two raspberry chips. I will also attach a screenshot of settings.
In almost one month I have uploaded a lot of planes but the maximum range is only 15nm. It is true that there are some hills around me but a lot of the times I can see a plane with my eyes way further than 15nm away and the receiver can't. Also tried to do the heatmap test but at the last step of making scan.png file shows me error in heatmap.py file around line 4 (i can send someone scan.csv file if you would like to check
Antenna is made like the one in tutorial on flightaware forum and there is about 5m of antenna cable from usb adapter to the antenna. Mounted on roof.
Should I get a filter anyway?
Is there any other problem you see?
