I'm thinking about starting up a feed out of Memphis, TN, and had a couple questions.
First of all, I'm about 14 road miles from KMEM, and according to my GPS, 10-11 miles away by air.
I was reading in the FAQ forum, and saw some different options on poles and what not.
I saw this one:
http://www.grove-ent.com/BEAMII.htmlDo you guys think that one would work sufficiently?
I was planning either mounting it on top of my roof, or putting a 20-30 foot pole in my back yard, then mounting the pole on that. There aren't really any tall buildings or anything in between myself and the airport...other than maybe the occasional tree.
Secondly, when you guys setup your scanners, do you have them setup to scan a range to pick up the various controlling sectors? Or would it be best to get a couple scanners, and set one to tower..one to approach / depature, one to center..etc etc?
Just looking for some ideas in regards to what the best setup might be.
I have several spare computers that I can easily load windows or linux onto and install multiple sound cards if needed.
If this is in the wrong forum, sorry.
