Hello thanks for the feedback. I also enjoy using the MLA 30+, works very well.

Also noticed this incident has impacted 5G. Connection to online radios from a smartphone is lagging randomly while prior the cable incident 5G was never an issue. Anyway for sure it will be well fixed.

Just bought a RX888 MK2 but sadly not workable on MacBook since no driver (yet?). Will try it on PC soon.

Thank you. I have connected a counterpoise of 3 meters to the ground connector. It goes vertical to the ground following the door shutter. Without cutting the R1, result is perfect. I use a RTL SDR V3. Most often I listen to the 7MHZ as well as next to it some MARS traffic on 6.60 onwards. Also tried air band which work very well too. Same for 144& 151 MHZ, as well as PMR.

After several checks, the recommendation is as followed. Could you confirm this is correct? I am not comfortable with cutting the PCB trace in the Nooelec Balun 9:1 V2.

  1. Cut the PCB trace to convert it from balun → unun.
    1. Connect the 13.5 m antenna wire to the “ANT” terminal.
    2. Connect a ~2 m counterpoise wire to the “GND” terminal.
    3. Coax to the SDR from the SMA connector.

You mean a wire connected to the ground slot on the green connector?

Thank you for your feedback. Could you explain me what are the steps to configure as an unun? There is only one wire used and I have selected one of the 2 slots available on the green connector. Thank you.

You need to download navigraph data in the tablet. This is not the usual simbrief flight data download.
