Is this with the supplied aerial?

No malc41 this is an aerial i bought from Manchester viewing park but i do get better results with it as you can see, sorry don't know the name of it but will try to find out for you. It cost £40 approx 12 months ago.

Are you sure? None of these seem to operate in the 1900MHz band

I bought one of these for a temporary home aerial when my outdoor one died, very good build and great reception too.

I use the same aerial in the loft, it is a good replacement for the supplied aerial with a longer coax.

EMA,

Just out of pure curiosity, what do you actually get on locally on the RB at 9 minutes past 3 in the morning ?
Is it worth an all night sitting. Just wondered.

Cheers,
Ian

I am not up that late just to monitor the RB but have it one whilst at the PC.

EMA (EGNX) has many overnight cargo movements, in fact it is busier in the early hours than at any other time.

Hope that answers your question ;-)

Thanks for that. Probably not worth an all night sitting for Glasgow as they don't have much in the way of cargo flights. Edinburgh departures which I can also usually pick up visually if it is clear enough is better but they usually start leaving from 8pm onwards so no need for sandwiches and bovril for them !

Cheers,

Ian

I am told that some people spend all night viewing the cargo movements from Nags Lane at EGNX, I prefer the luxury of my home and radarbox.
