Using a tutorial I did a scan for other RF noise in my area, two weeks ago when I did my initial setup. Today I replaced my SDR dongle with the one from RTL-SDR and augmented it with their LNA. I set it up, enabled the bias-tee and so on and it seems to be working fine. I ran another RF scan. The results are here. Original scan is on top, scan with LNA and new SDR dongle is below.
Am I interpreting this incorrectly or does it seem *more* noisy than before? I have not noticed an appreciable gain in range or amount of aircraft tracked, but have noticed that the area of coverage has slightly improved.
