Hi, I'm looking at ordering new ADS-B receiver system and wanted to get advice on what would be the best for my home looking at AirSpy R2 and The Radarcape the cable run is about 60 to 65 Feet long
I was looking at
AirSpy R2 http://airspy.com/airspy-r2/
it has 4.5v switched Bias-Tee
was going to use Meinberg NTP software http://www.meinberg-usa.com/support/downloads.htm
something else I like about AirSpy R2 it has an External clock input (10 MHz to 100 MHz via MCX connector)
and they have LeoNTP Time Server https://store.uputronics.com/index.p...&product_id=92
was looking at GPS Timing Antenna + 10 Meter Cable SMA https://store.uputronics.com/index.p...&product_id=74
the coax run to the mast where the preamplifier will be located it about 60 Feet
was looking at RG-8 LMR-400DB https://www.timesmicrowave.com/docum...es/LMR-400.pdf
also looking at using RG-6 Quad Shield but does have a higher loss and is 75 ohm
FlightAware ADS-B Antenna
here is a link to a review of it
Uputronics 1090Mhz ADS-B Filtered Preamp with Ceramic Filter https://store.uputronics.com/index.p...&product_id=50
Datasheets
enclosure for Uputronics the only thing is the enclosure is Black, and the area I live gets in the upper 90-degree temperature
so I was thinking of painting it white or silver for solar sun reflection
photos of enclosure and setup
SMA male to SMA female 90' Extender 15 cms RG316 Extended Panel Mount https://store.uputronics.com/index.p...&product_id=58
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the other ADS-B I was looking at is The Radarcape
it has a Complete package
Radarcape
Power supply (5 V, 15 W)
5 m network cable
GPS antenna (cable length 5 m)
"Active Diapason“ Antenna
Bias Tee (for power supply of the LNA over USB-jack of a computer)
USB cable
Antenna mount
20 m antenna cable
it uses Active Diapason Antenna I don't know that much about that it's Design by F1OPA and F5ANN
here is a link with translation https://translate.google.com/transla...html&sandbox=1
it comes with 20 m Cable SMA (male) - SMA (male) Typ H155 equivalent, CO 100 AF here is Data sheet http://www.bieffecavi.com/pdf/CO100AFeng
the cable looks like the size of RG-58 would I need to use something with more Shielding like LMR-400?
any help would be greatly appreciated
