I lost complete interest in SDR due to the fact that antenna's are very important. I am ok with the tools etc but the fact that I cannot do anything with the antennas and the interference put me off.
- Sanzig 7y agoI mean... you could go buy or build an antenna appropriate for the signal you want to monitor? If you've got the space for it, a wideband discone like this one [1] out on the balcony and up on your roof paired with a wideband LNA from Mini-Circuits will give you acceptable reception from low VHF all the way up through S-band. Or, if you are looking for a specific frequency, build yourself a dipole of the correct length (it's really not hard). You can't cheat physics, you do in fact need the right antenna. I don't know what else to tell you. [1] https://www.diamondantenna.net/d3000n.html https://www.diamondantenna.net/d3000n.html
