ADS-B Antenna Example
Please note that besides the antenna itself the quality and length of the cable plays a
big role in ADS-B performance. Thus, shortening the ADS-B antenna cable as much as
possible makes a significant difference. We can also assist you with shorter cables etc.
if required. As a guideline the relatively thin RG174 cable on the supplied antenna
works best if shorter than 1m. For more than 2m we recommend using much thicker
cable like RG400 which has shown to work well over 6m and more.
