Most my gear is running LMR400 with N-type so potentially could. Just a PiTA to get the mast down
Which receiver do you have, and not too many adaptors in the chain etc? They can potentially lose 3dB each connection.Posts not to be taken as official support representation - Just a helpful uploader who tinkers

Im using a Raspberry Pi with Realtek DVB-T. I have a N to BNC connector, then the BNC via F connector running RG6 for about 2m to the Raspberry Pi & beling-lee in the ceiling space of the garage.
The Same Coax runs just fine to the 1/4 wave which terminates to a BNC. The difference is the 1/4 wave is insulated by the PVC pipe its sitting at the top of, the FlightAware one is earthed / grounded to the antenna post stack & garage roof. I would assume it is fine to ground the antenna otherwise it would have used insulated mountings.

Interesting. Mines essentially running free-air at present at the top of a portable flagpole base but secured to the guttering, with just the shielding providing what little earth there is back to the decoder.
I guess It could also be the stick potentially is now overloaded or higher gain causing slight signal shift/noise.Posts not to be taken as official support representation - Just a helpful uploader who tinkers

First time I actually looked at it lol
My NZCH5 appears to have expired/been removed (doesnt show in accts). It was incorrectly assigned when they made the original 30003 feeder Beta public after I had been using it already with -1
And didn't realise you still had me at QE2Moved 2 years ago to North Kaiapoi
