Which side of this dipole is ground?
(programming.dev)
My guess
The left sort of looks like the outside of the cable so I think that's ground.
Weird that they don't elaborate. I flipped it last night and it seemed marginally better this way, so maybe there is some truth to it. Take this with a truck load of salt as it wasn't any sort of controlled experiment at all.
It has a choke on it, it's a little blurry but you can see it. Should it be moved closer? I saw a comment on rtl-sdr's blog suggesting it.
