Title: Moved radabox into loft
Post by: jetset on March 21, 2010, 06:59:56 PM

I've moved my radarbox into my loft and have it connected to my Radar 100 (also in the loft) antenna via 6 inches of westflex 103.
Using a standard 5m USB extension cable.

The range hasn't increased, but the hits have.
Currently receiving 150 in 'my flights' where as it was usually about 100.

As and when I get my antenna mounted on the chimney, I'm defiantly going to have the radarbox up in the loft, with the shortest amount of coax.

You will find one or two of us use on here do the same. I have mine in the loft with some cat5 cable running down the outside of the house.
