  • Outdoor Antenna

    Hi Guys,

    I know this topic must have been discusses hundreds of times.

    I am looking for a good outdoor antenna to buy in Europe.

    I did try the FA antenna, but was not satisfied with its performance.

    any ideas ?

    Thanks

    I bought my antenna (A3 ADS-B) here: http://shop.jetvision.de/

    Buy also the Self Sealing Tape for the connector.

      Hi Poul,

      Thanks for the info.

      What range do you get from the a3 ?, are you using an amplifier ?

            I don't have numbers for my range, but it is better than my selfmade antenna.
            My antenna is placed on my balcony with buildings near by, so my range is limited. I only have 5 meter cable so no amplifier.

              My cable run is aprox 4-6 meters, a good antenna is crucial.
