Re: My overly-complicated TT3+ install

 

Is that a passive or active antenna?? Many gps boards feed dc antenna power up the center conductor (through an smt choke and then capacitively couple the signal into the module).

This is a nice active antenna that also has the wire exit on the side and a magnet to stick it to a vehicle roof.? 28dB of gain gets you locked faster and pulls in more of the constellation for better positioning.

Last stop is a $13 GPS antenna with SMA connector from Amazon. I popped some of the plastic off around the windows and was able to pull the headliner down enough to safely drill a hole for the antenna. My truck is black, as is the antenna so I had to point out the newly installed antenna to my wife, I guess that's a good thing.
