Hi!

I recently built a QFH antenna for receiving NOAA weather satellites. I did some initial testing with my kenwood handheld and got a strong clear signal, however when I hooked the antenna up to my BladeRF it couldn't see anything.

I even turned up all the amplifiers and nada. Do I need to add an LNA to my antenna to get it to pick up anything? It seems like the sensitivity should be better.

Thanks.

Are you using the older bladeRF or the newer bladeRF?
