ADSB on RaspberryPi

 Playing with Raspi and ADSB.

I made a little box to put it on a pole at my second location.




The antenna is a double helix, housed into a PVC pipe.

Testing in Bucharest on the balcony, it looks well!

50-100-150 km range circles.

Hi.
I also made an ADSB receiver (find me as Horia-YO2MNE or T-LOWK59), following configuration:
1. Quarter wave antenna with 4 radials;
2. Hairpin filter + LNA;
3. SAW filter;
4. RTL-SDR V3;
5. Raspbery Pi B+ (Generation ONE!).
And it works well.
Also using a PVC pipe of 110mm, looks great on the terrase.
Now, my question is: what do you think about using 2 antennas (placed in different location) and a combiner (PD1120 for example)?
Would it work?
Pros and Cons?

i don;t think using two antennas on the same receiver will produce better results. You will need a real combiner. PD1120 look too cheap to be a true combiner! Better try two SDRs.
