Thank you for the kind words :)

I think that it can be a bit tricky because there is a decent bit to know so you can debug your setup. If you're interested in giving it another shot I'll include resources i found invaluable:

The satellite GOAT (imo)

A solid guide with helpful detail

Great write up on antenna height

The extra filter and amplifier i bought do make a difference with noise but aren't strictly necessary for decent captures.
