Can anyone tell me why I can log into website using Opera Browser.  I must have my settings wrong

[waituke]

Suppose to be cant.  I can get the website but no planes showing at all in New Zeland

No idea on Opera but on IE lots showing.

I use Firefox, never have any problems showing planes.

I also use Firefox and never had a problem :-)

Here is my current polar diagram. The filter made a huge difference. After winter I will raise the antenna a couple of meters which should improve reception to the north and north east.

Try one of these https://store.uputronics.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=59&product_id=50

hi James,

I saw that a few weeks ago, and thought it looked good; certainly a good price. My only concern is will it overload or damage the RB receiver. Can anyone confirm it will be OK, if so I will buy one!

Hi Dennis,

From what I have been told they work ok with the RB Units.

You can email me and I could send you some extra info.

Sounds good.

However I don't think the version with the SAW will work well for me: attenuation of cell tower frequencies is not that good. The version with the ceramic filter has very similar attenuation properties to the in-line filter I am currently using. Double the price but still good value. Think I will order that.

Good coverage happening in New Zealand. 6:45 pm at night...looking good.

I've just gone online in Brisbane.  About 1KM 1km from 01 in Eagle Farm.

I feel like such a plane nerd!

Indeed...welcome to the plane nerd club, aka Nigel no life club!

Hope you enjoy your time watching your polar diagram; its quite fun.

Cheers,

Added an Uputronics amplifier (with ceramic filter) just before the receiver. Whilst it did improve short range reception in areas that were previously not so good, it had a negative effect at long range; if there were planes near to me, long range planes within the polar diagram suddenly disappeared. It seems the nearby flights overloaded the receiver thus making it deaf to weaker long range signals.

Great coverage over New Zealand...looking good!
