Hi C2,

I am using the scanner in either USB or LSB mode, been swapping between the two to see which one give me the strongest reading...

I know it possible to use a scanner such as the yaesu vr500 and a 173 flexible yagi as these were untill recently available from falconry telemetrics.

So it is possible, just not sure how I can increase the range...

I know even with dedicated ones, you may still only get a couple of miles, it's just that they don't have the constant "hiss" that I am suffering with and drowning out the signal...

Attached is basically the schematic that most manufacturers use...
