Hi All,
I’m new to SDR and radio in general, I have a Hack RF One running through GQRX on Mac. I have a Discone antenna installed in my attic which I connect directly to my HackRF one using RG58 cable. Does anyone have any tips on optimal set up in GQRX etc? I can pick up a few signals on the air band but not as many as I was expecting! I’m based in Cumbria, UK. Not a huge amount of air traffic overhead but thought I’d be able to get a lot better range than i’m currently getting with the Discone. The clearest signal I get is on 126.300 which I believe is Prestwick Airport.
