Hi Eric this is the receiver;
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01D1ZAP3C?tag=fligh01-20
Here's the shopping list;
http://flightaware.com/adsb/piaware/build
I upgraded and bought the indoor/outdoor antenna for $45.00;
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00WZL...fligh01-20
I have about $200 invested and the one thing that's not on the list was the special cable;
CA240-PE-NMSMAP-025F
Product: CA240 Antenna Cable, N Plug-Male to SMA Plug-Male, 25 Feet (7.62 m)
Quantity: 1
Item price: USD $26.11
$14.00 shipping-I ordered it on 10-15-16
http://www.air802.com/
They tell me that it will have a 245 nautical mile range- The national park is very interested in my project. To pick up the helis over my house the antenna needs line of sight that's why the ones at the airport only pick up higher ones- that will change with my station.
Hi Obie, I asked Flightawares to do a custom survey for me- they quoted a $250 price. Before I bought they said there was so much data that the price would be $761 for data on the 254 helicopters that flew over my house on 12-26-15. The data is there I just don't want to have to pay that price for one day's worth of data.
They are actively expanding their coverage- they need more line of sight antennas for better coverage so they provide a free account as long as I share my data.
