with position reports, weather, fuel on board, etc.
Receiver: Drake R8B
Antenna: Wellbrook ALA-330s (phased against an LF-Engineering H-800
Skymatch)
Location: Brooklyn, NY

Steve,
How does the H-800 antenna perform by itself?
I am looking to add an antenna here & that is one I am considering.
The RF Systems MTA is also another one I am looking at.
BTW I am currently using a ALA1530 & a low 180 ft. Horizontal loop.
