I am not an expert in electronics, radio, antennas, Raspberry Pi, aircraft.

Running since: 19 April 2023
Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5, 8GB RAM
SDR: NESDR SMArt v5
Antenna: DPD Productions ADS-B Vertical Outdoor Base Antenna (Standard 1090 MHz ES) (link). It’s the large white antenna on the back of the shed in the photo below.
