Title: YBBN FEED3 GND / TWR - AERIAL UPGRADE
Post by: SteveJWR on February 08, 2014, 02:45:39 AM

Hey.
Apologies to those listening this afternoon (UTC+10) - Signal drop outs were the new hi gain antenna being installed.
Reception now 5/5 from aircraft on the ground and 4/5 from the low power transmissions of the tugs.
If you are sitting in the domestic terminal this arvo you will see the rare occurrence of a QF 747 sitting at gate 24. It will be parked up there overnight. I'm sure I heard it will be back tomorrow (SUN20140208) arvo too.

Oh and a reminder, these feeds cost heaps to host. How about donating to LiveATC via Paypal. Click the LiveATC logo at the top and look for the MAKE A DONATION link.

I noticed the 'click' of the receiver, around 100hz, was tripping the compressor limiter threshold causing a fade in on transmissions.
Adding a High Pass Filter eliminates this 'pop' and makes listening levels much more stable.
cheers.
