Title: Recommendation for travelling antenna with Flightaware Stick Pro
Post by: Fender222 on October 04, 2023, 05:09:20 PM

Thanks to Mike's help and patience, I'm starting out on using Basestation with a Blue Flightaware Stick which I hope to use whilst travelling.

Can anyone suggest a good antenna? I was looking at MD-1100MINI SBS-3 ANTENNA from Moonraker - any thoughts on this or suggestions please?

Many thanks
Paul

Hi Paul,

I've used that antenna with great success. Admittedly with a clear over-water path I've received high-level traffic from over 200 miles away using the SBS-1eR that I use when travelling.

HTH,
Rob
