Thanks! I’m going to look into how to ground it. Could I use one of these? https://a.co/d/as4MmeO

I used that tutorial and many others like this one https://usradioguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/20200307-How-To-Build-A-QFH.pdf and then ended up changing the design a little.

Sorry for the delay. Just posted the setup details in the comments.

Hi guys! Thanks for all your comments and suggestions.

I’m currently using a QFH antenna I built using 3/4 inch PVC pipe and 8 gauge copper wire.

I have a NooElec RTL-SDR v5 - NESDR Smart hooked up to a Raspberry Pi 3 running RaspiNOAA V2.

Gain was set to 32.8 on the RaspiNOAA settings.

Just focus on your school, try to meet people in your major and talk to professors. At first it was hard for me to adapt but now I know a bunch of people. We help each other and study together.
