Installed a second antenna on my roof, this one for air-band radio reception.
After installing the ADSB antenna on my roof a while ago, I ordered an air-band aerial so I could hopefully listen into the planes flying overhead, as well as tracking their flying. Ultimately I’m hoping to pick up Moorabbin’s tower and ground frequencies, as these are not currently in liveatc.net.

Watched some planes fly overhead:
Looked around a little bit:
Watched the sun set:
