recently purchased RTL-SDR Blog brand V3 Dongle with dipole antenna kit
trying to receive aviation transmissions
found information on what length to set dipole antenna to receive those freqs
my question:
how is it my handheld scanner with rubber duck antenna produces good reception
yet the SDR with the (outside) antenna set at the required length and set perpendicular to the ground sounds horrible
is it the sensitivity/quality of the handheld vs the SDR
am really interested to know the reason(s).
thanks
