New antenna doubles aircraft and location messages

My new cantenna doubled my aircraft and location messages plus increased coverage.

Tracking aircraft with Ra-Pi ADS-B decoder

With the Raspberry Pi computer and a cheap software defined radio dongle you can track aircraft and feed to a major aircraft tracking site. Having a passion for aviation this was a fun project to complete.  The screenshot below was achieved with a stock antenna. The software is also available for Windows.  If your lucky you may grab a celebrity jet like the second image below.
