well done Grahame, lot's of fun.
I bought the Radarbox in 2007 and was one of the first in Oz to get one (s/n 00082).
took it overseas in 2008 and without it there was no way of picking up the a/c I saw at various airports. Screen gets full quickly at busy airports so was consantly paging up and down.
It has suffered some sensitivity issues and range now is minimal, that's why I bought the SBS-1E in 2009.
I have RG58 low loss cable (12m length) going into the SBS-1E, and as i face south I can pick up flights right up to the Vic border but behind me is a double storey house so limited hits until they pass behind it or over it. Aircraft landing at SYD, I lose at 2500-3000' depending on runway but am close to Bankstown and Richmond so get them down to 100-200'.
With regards to Radarbox logs, they have MyLog which stores all logged a/c and u can use the reporter to create daily logs for e-mails or you can export selected data to a csv file.
The display on Radarbox is better than Basestation as it takes care of overlap better.
Enjoy.
