Thank you for this great review... i received my patch antenna some days ago and i can confirm.... it's outstanding!
Up to 35-40% more signal compared to the smaller version!
Keep up the good work, your videos are an important part of our hobby!

I love this sort of thing, I think I'll get one. Space communications and RTL-SDR, a nerd's dream!

Oooo... just ordered one.
Got a couple of the old barebones Nooelec ones, but have never got around to building an enclosure for them to go outside... seeing this has wider bandwidth and comes in a case it's a no-brainer.

After making the earlier patch from pcb material which worked a treat I ordered one of these from the US and my initial thoughts are that is is around 6dBm better than the home brew one which in turn is about 10dBm better than the sdr-kits patch, so my signal strength in tekmanoid has gone from about 65% with the sdr-kits patch to 80% with the homebrew patch and now to 90% with this new patch, definitely a performer and so much more useful as it it weatherproof. Beats having a plastic bag flapping in the wind to protect the LNA. It really pulls in the 10500 aero channels which were a struggle with the homebrew patch. Def the best recommendation I have seen and the strip down and exploration in the video give more confidence as to what you are buying, not just a "black box" product.

Are you planning to review the version 3 light grey version ? It's bigger and has better reception apparently. I'm waiting for mine from aliexpress. Bit more expensive now with damn VAT on top 🙃

Hi there, Thanks for all your video's. Can you tell me what direction to point gps antenna at please for Inmarsat? Just learning this. Also I am in Scotland so possible elevation maybe different. Cheers 73s Kev

Thanks for the review. Is it worth upgrading from the old version? Which Inmarsat satellite are you using?

At 1:40 you say the cable is for connecting the patch to an SDR but then go on to say this is not advisable due to interference. How should you connect it then, as it needs bias T also?

Rg174? Check the losses at that freq range. You would be losing like 50%+ from memory

Sadly they are out of stock, everywhere! Do you know when they will be available again? Looks like a great piece of kit!

What is the bias t application? Can you get weather sat pics.
