I should be but need to work out how to get my cable through my roof and into our under eaves shortage while all our tech lives. Ideally without having to pay roofers but I've got a few other jobs for them so might end up doing that. Progress has been temporarily slowed by what turned out to be a fairy major spinal operation but it's on my list.
I have tested it by running the cable through the window of one of our skylights and I'm getting up to about 200nm. Newcastle in the north and Paris in the south which isn't bad I reckon considering my chimney breast is 18m above sea level. High planes > low planes, as you'd expect.
61-2667, aka the sole remaining WC-135 Constant Phoenix, just coming back into Mildenhall after returning from the Middle East and turning it's tracker on just west of Lebanon (seems to be standard US practice, presumably for security reasons plus the lack of a requirement to use ADS-B east of there):

Bit worrying given what's going on in Afghanistan 😬
