Hi everyone!
I have RTL-SDR usb stick with self made "flower pot" antenna.
I have calibrated the stick, found best ppm and AIS working like a charm, the OpenCPN screen is full of detected ships, but every vessel is class "A", but no class "B" ships at all
I asked my marina neigbours to turn on their class "B" AIS transponders , but they are not detected despite nearest vessel in 10 meters away of me.
Class "A" ships detecting more than 10 miles away...
Could you please give me advice what else i able to try to detect "B" class ships
