**UPDATE**

After installing the new antenna and new RTL820T2 stick. I am getting planes 350nm out. I was reporting 18,515 position reports with 269 aicraft, now I am 31,289 with 353 aircraft. The antenna is about 20 feet above ground, still it can go higher but the 50ft of coax was not enough to cover the run, due to the results Im going to leave it there for a while. Again the link to it is https://prradar.ddns.net:100/Virtualradar

Running PP, RTL820 dongle, home made planar antenna. Reporting up to PP and FlightAware. Getting 1000+ planes a day with 25-32k positions reported. Antenna is mounted in the yard - needs to go up on the roof. only getting out 140 nm or so. Expecting 200-250 when it's 25' higher.
