AirNav RadarBox 1090 MHz filter

Why use a filter?

Tracking flights via ADS-B in dense urban areas has a unique set of challenges. Prime among them is the issue of interference. Trying to isolate a particular frequency range can be problematic since a lot of the out-of-band frequency gets picked up. AirNav’s first portable 1090MHz ADS-B filter is designed to solve this problem by significantly reducing interference and optimizing 1090 MHz ADS-B reception, while increasing tracking range.

The 1090 MHz Filter is an ideal addition to your exisiting ADS-B setup. Buy it at RadarBox.com/store or on Amazon.com RadarBox Store.
