I now have the RTL-SDR.COM USB SDR AIS receiver for my RPi3-Sensehat setup (see bragboard)
It came with both a mini and larger (maybe each arm nearly 1m long) version of a 'V' telescopic antenna.
I have read in another thread that the mini one is for FM radio, will the larger one work for AIS?
Or should I get another VHF antenna to mount on the pullpit?
Or can I use a splitter (for example this one[url=https://www.force4.co.uk/glomex-vhf-ais-am-fm-radio-splitter.html?utm_source=google_shopping&gclid=CKft3pi6uNQCFcS37QodoZUODw?utm_source=google_shopping&gclid=CKft3pi6uNQCFcS37QodoZUODw#.WT6cvTOZNjQ][/url]) with my existing VHF antenna at the mast top?
Thanks
Leigh
I have one of those however I must say that there are so many other options nowadays! Is all down to your preferences I should imagine!
