    After building a new V-Dipole using a 3D printed housing and panel mount SMA alongside a SAWbird LNA filter I was able to receive (noisy) APT images from the NOAA weather Satellites.

    The amount of noise makes me think that there is alot more work to be done to isolate the radio from background EMF interference.
