F-EGNX4 activated in East Midlands, United Kingdom
This is me, activated last night
12 miles south of EMA.
Currently operating with the antenna in the loft space, if the rain holds off it will go on a 2m pole attached to the chimney tomorrow.
With the antenna on a 2m pole and hanging out a Velux window I get 150-200nm north/east/south east. Hoping for better when properly mounted.
Antenna now properly mounted. Getting really good range and now appearing in the "radar" tag in FR24 (not that the tag is an accurate one, however it's nice to get a mention). Seeing 100+ aicraft.Last edited by NooNoo; 2014-05-31, 12:06.

Operating with a small antenna right now, but a nicer one is on order.
I'm F-KBTR1 and T-KBTR3(adjacent to your south) for my Pi feeder that I'm playing with on various antenna builds.

That motivated me to get a nicer antenna, which I plan to install outside and hopefully get even better coverage in all directions.
Whoever our northern counterpart is in Tupelo seems to be able to cover pretty much all of MS and AL and most of TN, AR, and LA. So right now I'm mostly just serving to capture planes below the level my neighbors can see. Unfortunately right now the only routine flight in/out of JAN with ADS-B is a UPS flight to SDF that takes off every night just after 10 PM and comes back every morning around 6 AM.
Nice to meet you!F-KJAN3 and T-KJAN2...providing ground traffic at JAN and low level coverage around the Jackson, MS metro area

Though I'm obviously missing quite a bit of traffic on the side of the antenna being blocked by the building, I was surprised how far I could see in the other direction at times with that small antenna (and even in the directions blocked by various obstructions).

Nice to meet you!
I noticed this morning that a new feed went up in Beaumont and the MLAT coverage picked up quite a bit there. Have you put in your application for your area for the free equipment? I think if they would accept it might add a bit of MLAT coverage as well there.

I was going to get a new idea of my coverage before applying for the nicer equipment. I saw that new one in BPT as well and the increased MLAT coverage. It would be nice to fill in some more of that around here.
