Der LNA+Filter führt bei mir zu deutlich besseren Empfang
Bevor man Geld für einen besseren Empfang von ADS-B investiert, stellt sich die Frage, ob sich die Investition rentieren wird. Hier die wichtigsten Ergebnisse bei mir: Anzahl der Flugzeuge: 30% mehr Anzahl der Messages: 17% mehr Reichweite noch einmal deutlich verbessert. Fazit: Investition hat sich gelohnt. Ob sich die Investition lohnt, hängt von der Konfiguration des Systems ab. Wer beispielsweise nur 15-50 Flugzeuge empfängt, darf von dem Filter keine Wunder erwarten. Die Probleme liegen vermutlich woanders. Wer einen relativ guten Empfang hat und auch große Reichweite hat, wird von dem Filter am meisten profitierten. Grund ist, dass andere Signale (z.B. GSM-Mobilfunk ) den Empfang stören kennen. Gerade bei großen Reichweite ist die Wahrscheinlichkeit von den Störeinstrahlungen groß. Auch Empfänger, die sich nahe an Störsendern stehen, profitieren. Damit sollte abgeschätzt werden können, ob sich ein Filter lohnt. Für mich hat es sich eindeutig gelohnt.

Large gain in range and detail.
I'm not usually a review writer, but seeing as this is new and unreviewed, I'd add mine. Bottom Line: It works. It's easy. See the images one is "before" and one is "after" adding the unit. It basically doubled my range. (Your mileage may vary based on location). I'll start by saying my unit arrived and had the silkscreens on the "output" side reversed. I sent an email direct to Nooelec with this, and they replied within an hour saying it was a known thing on the first batch, apologized and explained how to get it connected correctly. Well done. Performance: I just plugged and played. I didn't change anything in my setup. The antenna coax goes to the LNA, and then a 6" cable to my SDR. I'm currently only using the ADS-B/1090mHz side. I'm powering the unit thought the micro USB with a standard Pi wall wart PSU. I have the antenna mounted on my chimney with about a 15ft run of cable. I live in a heavily wooded area and this really helped reception. I basically went from 50nm to right above 100nm. It also picks more lower level traffic closer to my location as well. On the average afternoon I went from ~10 visible aircraft on average to 25+. I'd say it's worth the investment.

Works well
Tested on a spectrum analyzers and got about 30 dB gain as advertise as well as about 10 MHz bandwidth that cuts off pretty steep to 20 MHz bandwidth. Not much not passed outside of that band. The inputs and outputs were correctly labeled on the version I got.

Short Life could be great but bad QA
This is my second unit where it stops working. No led no power. A great unit when it works.
