Following a power cycle, I noticed that since I switched to the HA-addon my reception range dropped.
Quick study showed my LNA filter wasn't powered anymore. Reason: BIAS-T wasn't switched on anymore.
The readsb container has a switch for that, the HA-addon (and your container?) doesn't as far as I have been able to determine.
Besides that, it provides for a lot of tuning options of the signal as well.
Reverting to the separate containers fixed the issue, BIAS-T was switched back on (needs to be done after each power cycle, it's not possible to fix this within the firmware/hardware of the RTL-SDR dongle), my reception range was back to normal.
Also via the HA-addin that uses your containers.
Reseating the RTLSDR dongle into the USB port resulted in the same. Less range, until the readsb container was restarted and switched on BIAS-T in the dongle.
Would it be possible to (at least) enable BIAS-T in yours? And preferably the other tuning options as well?
My goal is to stop using seperate docker containers and switch from HA supervised, to full HA OS.

I've tested your container via this Home-Assistant add-on:
https://community.home-assistant.io/t/home-assistant-add-on-ads-b-multi-portal-feeder-flightradar24-and-flightaware/345563
Where I previously used a few docker containers: https://github.com/sdr-enthusiasts/docker-readsb-protobuf/pkgs/container/docker-readsb-protobuf (Sorry not yours...)
