I also want to try the LNA and see what happens. The one filter I bought on amazon or ebay was supposed to be 1090 mhz but it just muffled everything.
Well this is the one from flightaware, doesn't appear to have muted much, least the required signal.. Definitely curious about the LNA..
Well got the LNA in, sadly it doesn't work with the RPI config. I can connect it to the SDRv3, ensure the bias-t is turned on using the provided script, but once unplugged and plugged into the PI it doesn't init the LNA causing the SDR to go deaf. I removed the cover to ensure the LED was lit post running the bias-t on script. This was reproduced with two SDRv3's..
You're disconnecting it and reconnecting it... of course it's not going to stay active. I'd follow these instructions and use a very similar variation to either start the bias-tee on boot, or add it to the adsbexchange-dump1090-maint.sh script. https://www.rtl-sdr.com/getting-the-v3-bias-tee-to-activate-on-piaware-ads-b-images/
Let me know if you get this to work. I'd like to also pick on up and test it out here in the city with a 50-100' COAX cable.
Nope, someone left out some authentication for the github repo it calls for.. puttylog output ]0;[email protected]: ~[01;[email protected][00m:[01;34m~ $[00m cd ~ ]0;[email protected]: ~[01;[email protected][00m:[01;34m~ $[00m git clone https://github.com/rtlsdrblog/rtl-biat[Kst Cloning into 'rtl-biast'...
