## Description

FOR FULL SPECIFICATIONS AND DETAILS, PLEASE REVIEW THE PRODUCT PAGE AT NOOELEC.COM Introducing the Nooelec SAWbird+ ADS-B Dual-Channel Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) – the ultimate solution for enhancing weak signals in ADS-B and UAT applications. This premium SAW filter and cascaded LNA module is designed to improve the noise figure of each channel, providing unparalleled performance for your reception needs. With center frequencies of 1090MHz and 978MHz for ADS-B and UAT respectively, the SAWbird+ ADS-B LNA module delivers approximately +35 dB gain for each side, with an ultra-low noise figure of less than 0.9dB. Boost your weak signals and improve reception range with ease. Each module allows for 3 different power options, but you should only power with one option at any given time! The recommended power input through the SMA output port (for bias-tee capable SDRs like the NESDR SMArTee) is 3V-5V DC. Alternatively, if you don't have a bias-tee capable SDR, you can use the external power options--the micro USB port, or DC barrel connector via the included micro USB to DC barrel connector adapter. The recommended external power input is 3.3V-5.5V DC. With the Nooelec SAWbird+ ADS-B LNA, you can take your plane tracking to new heights. Enhance the performance of your surveillance, monitoring, and communication systems with the best-in-class noise figure optimization. Experience unparalleled signal quality and reliability. Order yours today!

Review: Goede kwaliteit - Heel tevreden over. Goede kwaliteit. Goed merk.
Review: Der LNA+Filter führt bei mir zu deutlich besseren Empfang - Bevor man Geld für einen besseren Empfang von ADS-B investiert, stellt sich die Frage, ob sich die Investition rentieren wird. Hier die wichtigsten Ergebnisse bei mir: Anzahl der Flugzeuge: 30% mehr Anzahl der Messages: 17% mehr Reichweite noch einmal deutlich verbessert. Fazit: Investition hat sich gelohnt. Ob sich die Investition lohnt, hängt von der Konfiguration des Systems ab. Wer beispielsweise nur 15-50 Flugzeuge empfängt, darf von dem Filter keine Wunder erwarten. Die Probleme liegen vermutlich woanders. Wer einen relativ guten Empfang hat und auch große Reichweite hat, wird von dem Filter am meisten profitierten. Grund ist, dass andere Signale (z.B. GSM-Mobilfunk ) den Empfang stören kennen. Gerade bei großen Reichweite ist die Wahrscheinlichkeit von den Störeinstrahlungen groß. Auch Empfänger, die sich nahe an Störsendern stehen, profitieren. Damit sollte abgeschätzt werden können, ob sich ein Filter lohnt. Für mich hat es sich eindeutig gelohnt.

## Features

- This product is designed to massively increase plane tracking signal strength (SNR) compared to competing products. Drastically outperforms all available, low-cost ADS-B amplifiers and filters!
- SAWbird+ ADS-B increases SNR, and therefore signal range, by providing an industry lowest-in-class noise figure (0.9dB or lower) and substantial gain (34dB or higher) for BOTH ADS-B and UAT applications
- Your purchase includes a fully assembled SAWbird+ ADS-B module pre-installed into a beautiful black custom aluminum enclosure, two male to male SMA adapters, and a micro USB to DC barrel connector adapter cable
- Both sides of the device offer a bias tee power option (3 to 5V DC and 140mA or higher current availability). Alternatively, a micro USB port is available to provide external power when bias tee power is unavailable or unsuitable
- Exceptional out-of-band rejection levels of +85dB for cleaner signals
- 50Ω matched input/output for optimal signal transfer
- Proudly made in North America, ensuring exceptional quality and reliability. Backed by a generous 2-year warranty for peace of mind

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Large gain in range and detail.
*by B***. on 24 July 2023*

I'm not usually a review writer, but seeing as this is new and unreviewed, I'd add mine. Bottom Line: It works. It's easy. See the images one is "before" and one is "after" adding the unit. It basically doubled my range. (Your mileage may vary based on location). I'll start by saying my unit arrived and had the silkscreens on the "output" side reversed. I sent an email direct to Nooelec with this, and they replied within an hour saying it was a known thing on the first batch, apologized and explained how to get it connected correctly. Well done. Performance: I just plugged and played. I didn't change anything in my setup. The antenna coax goes to the LNA, and then a 6" cable to my SDR. I'm currently only using the ADS-B/1090mHz side. I'm powering the unit thought the micro USB with a standard Pi wall wart PSU. I have the antenna mounted on my chimney with about a 15ft run of cable. I live in a heavily wooded area and this really helped reception. I basically went from 50nm to right above 100nm. It also picks more lower level traffic closer to my location as well. On the average afternoon I went from ~10 visible aircraft on average to 25+. I'd say it's worth the investment.
