## Overview

The NooElec ADS-B Discovery Bundle features two lightweight, high-gain 5dBi antennas tuned to 1090MHz and 978MHz, designed for portable and embedded ADS-B applications. With foldable hinges for versatile mounting and included low-loss RG316 MCX to SMA pigtail cables, this kit ensures seamless compatibility with most SDR devices, delivering reliable aircraft signal reception from over 100 nautical miles away.

## Description

A pair of 5dBi, medium-sized, lightweight antennas with 978MHz and 1090MHz center frequencies, respectively, designed for portable ADS-B applications. Also included are a pair of 15cm (6") male MCX to female SMA pigtail cables, made from RG316 cable for low loss. As such, these antennas can be used with MCX-input or SMA-input devices without further purchase. Each antenna is only 20g and 19cm (7.5") long, 5dBi, with a VSWR of 1.5:1 or better at their respective center frequencies. A handy flexible antenna elbow facilitates a wide range of mounting options.

Review: Only really needed the 1090MHz antenna (shame it’s not available on its own) - Using the 1090MHz antenna with an SDR and Raspberry Pi in an upstairs bedroom, I can pick up ADS-B transmissions from just over 100nm away.
Review: Good - After trying for a couple of months, I have seen an increase in signals/reports from aircraft compared to my wideband scanner antenna I had been using.
