If it's above 500 feet I won't see it

Took me a few seconds to realise that you might be using your eyes... was thinking if your receivers only work up to 500ft then maybe a better placement would not go a miss.

Tis rather cloudly. Should go right over your area, I'm just gonna be happy to Radar Spot it as it will be my first time.

Heading west towards me as I write, flight ID ADB3981.  But zero chance of seeing it!  Bummer.
