Subject: Re: [450] ADS-B receiver   
I moved the receiver and antenna outside this evening to see how the range 
improves. It is only right above the peak of the roof and the antenna is 
about 12-18" from the conduit holding the CX333, but it is hearing pretty 
well so far. If anybody is interested in seeing the live plots reply 
privately and I'll share the URL. I just don't want it getting cached by 
the google. https://i.sli.mg/Mxs3k7.png On 5/23/2016 12:45 PM, David
