I am still trying to source a masthead box suitable to house the RB. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers from Covernotes, Melbourne, Australia.

hi all,

I was experimenting with the standard antenna, and i found that if I increase the height with about 10 feet (about 40 feet from the ground) I will cover most of sicily from malta!! When i was experimenting I saw aircraft taking off from LICC and LICZ from LMML(Malta). I bought 5 meters of sma extension and I will locate the airnav outside under the pipe i'm installing and then I will use the cat5 usb extender. Do you think that 5 meters of sma extension and the 2.5 or 2 meter standard lenght od the antenna will be too much ??? do you think it will lose signal?

Thanks to all
