    Thanks for everything you did, Pat. You were so good to provide us with the feed. Thanks to you, even my young fella (8 years) started watching the planes and listening in. We loved it. Thanks!

    A sad day :( but thanks for the feed mech1.


    Just as a matter of interest is it expensive to set up? Anywhere good to look online?
    Wouldn't mind giving it a go myself.

    Yes I think maybe windowspotter or dublincelt? Apologies if this is wrong. Pretty sure it's someone on here anyway.

    Just seen this, Pat thanks for the feed. The quality was fantastic and put's mine to shame. My one just works away in the corner of my shed so you guys want specific frequencies added or removed let me know. Just remember my reception of ground is not great.

    That's a decent feed too.

    Sure add in ground for a few days if you can and let the boardsies decide. The chances are if it's really bad that your squelch will keep it off the feed.

    It's amazing what the feed did for the young 'uns. He's 8 and he listens in on the iphone, together with the F24 app, up at the viewing point near Ticknock Cross there. Great view over the entire city and of planes coming in over Howth. His little sister is on binocular duty and he points to the direction she needs to look in. They know the weird howl the Aer Lingus A320's give when they're coming in to land via South Co. Dublin. He's listening in and is all, "Mam! Mam! Listen! This one is from Heathrow! He's gonna turn any minute now! They just told him. Look!!! LOOK!! He's doing it!!" I started doing this as a chore to relieve my frozen husband. However, they infected me with the plane spotting.

    Can I just say that Ticknock Cross is the coldest place on God's green earth and as for that over-bridge over the M50 at Ballinteer there. Jesus wept! The kids aren't one bit bothered but it is :::freezing::: up there. Great place for "remote air traffic controlling" though. If there's ever a problem with the ATC's in Dublin, I have an 8 year old and a 6 year old who would be happy to help out. ;-)

    Anyway, thanks to both Mech1 & Dublinflyer. Unwittingly, you guys have preserved the sanity of two frozen (and sometimes frazzled) parents. Not to mention getting us addicted too.

    You will also need to put your social life on hold during bad/windy weather so you can add remove frequencies as required by your demanding listeners to whom you are now enslaved.

    :D

    EDIT: bronn has certainly turned the pressure up by a fair few notches!

    I would guess that if you stood on the right spot on that bridge you could see the antenna on my house that I was receiving the signal from!
    Funny how the signal then has to travel halfway round the world to USA and back via internet to get to you, and your only 200 to 300 yards away as the crow flys.
