Review: Very Impressive - Purchased this along with a Raspberry Pi just as a fun project to see what I could track flying above my home. I live in an apartment so, unable to mount an antenna outdoors, I had quite low expectations. However I was amazed! Just with the small mobile antenna magnetised to a biscuit tin, I was tracking aircraft up to 100 miles away. Now hooked, I have just bought the FlightAware 1090mhz fixed antenna to replace the mobile one, and managed to mount it in the loft space of my building. This has extended my range by another 50 miles and also significantly increased the number of complete messages and positions received. Located just South East of London, I can see aircraft almost as far away as Brussels! I'm thoroughly impressed. Its definitely worth going for this device rather than the orange one, as it includes the extra filter which probably helps a lot, and the price difference is very small.
Review: Does what it says. - Purchased this, along with a 5DBi 1090MHz Antenna SMA Male Plug Indoor ADS-B Aerial with Magnetic Base RG174, Raspberry Pi 4 and the ElectroCookie Raspberry Pi 4 Case to create a FlightAware feeder site - the whole system went together easily and worked first time; I now watch flights from my local airports, the Global Airlines A380 and air ambulance from my own system - excellent!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what data does it give you and how?**
A: ADS-B transponder data.  Visualised on a map using something like PiAware.  Some technical know how is required.

**Q: Does anyone have a comparison between using this dedicated ads-b dongle, vs using a good quality general sdr dongle? how much better?**
A: Yes, I was using the nooelec sdr dongle. The Pro Stick is able to pickup a lot more aircraft even when connected to the same antenna.

**Q: Does this work with raspery pie  4b? I know it works with version 3b but will my work with version 4**
A: Yes it will work with the 4b as long as you use the latest software, I think is is version 3.8.1 which was upgraded to work with the 4b.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect Adbs dongle
*by A***G on 28 November 2021*

I was using prior to this a standard sdr dongle for my decoding getting around 20 to 30 aircraft that I thought was pretty good...I will add that I also make my own various different types of antenna for best reception and results,I decided to take the plunge and invest in this dongle not really knowing what the result would be, wow what a difference this has made to my station.. Instantly aircraft up to more than 50 and distance in excess of 200 miles constantly and an increase in MLAT.. If you are a serious decoder then this is a must have 5*****
