Much better than having long cables all tangled ... *by J***T on January 6, 2018* Works great! Much better than having long cables all tangled up. Gets much better reception than the cheap collapsible antennas. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great *by I***N on December 26, 2020* Good part ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Even with a basic setup, these made a HUGE difference... *by W***1 on January 20, 2023* For working with ADS-B flight tracking, these antennas are a huge improvement over both the untuned generic antenna that usually ships with SDR dongles and the tuned 1090/978 MHz desktop antennas. I put my antenna in a first-floor window, and I went from a 25- to 30-mile range with a desktop antenna to a range of 50-60 miles with this antenna. I recently moved the rig upstairs and stuck this antenna in a bedroom window...and I'm now working with an effective range of 100+ miles. ## Frequently Bought Together - NooElec ADS-B Discovery 5dBi (High Gain) Antenna Bundle - 1090MHz & 978MHz Antenna Bundle for SMA and MCX-Connected Software Defined Radios (SDRs) - Nooelec RTL-SDR v5 SDR - NESDR Smart HF/VHF/UHF (100kHz-1.75GHz) Software Defined Radio.
