How can I check to verify the 978 stuff is setup correctly? I'm seeing nearby UAT traffic on my reference box but not on my rebuilt one.
It's not all on the same map, you'll have to look at the tar1090 978 map if you added one or skyaware978.
are 1090 & 978 aircraft combined on the main adsbexchange.com site? Is there a command like sudo journalctl --no-pager -u dump978-fa that I can use to verify the 978 setup?
Can you just check /skyaware978 if you haven't installed /978 tar1090? Our global page includes 978 traffic.
Got it working. Had to do a sudo apt install rtl-sdr (rtl_test -t wouldn't run) and I had to swap the USB dongles so the 1090 was in the device 0 USB port.
I thought you followed the guide: https://github.com/wiedehopf/adsb-w...-fa-and-feeding-adsbexchange-with-UAT-traffic It goes with assigning explicit serials ....
Using serials 0 and 1 is contraproductive ... as the programs confuse it with the usb device id. Anyhow you figured it out, great
This command didn't work - sudo dump1090-fa-gain 42.1 - the error said it was only supported on piaware SD image. This command is listed in this page https://github.com/wiedehopf/adsb-scripts/wiki/Automatic-installation-for-dump1090-fa However, when I checked the sudo nano /etc/default/dump1090-fa file, the gain was updated.
Sounds like you might have /boot/piaware-config.txt ....? My script checks for that i believe to determine if it's a piaware sd-card install. Ah i see it will then use piaware-config to set the gain. But also edits the /etc/default/dump1090-fa just for backup i guess or something. Anyhow do weird thing having a piaware-config.txt on a non piaware sd-card image .... you'll get strange behaviour.
Hey there, I am currently trying to install ADSBx on my running raspi with PiAware 4.00. If I start the scripts from your page I get a "Continue? (Y/no)" question from Bash and whatever I answer it leads to aborting the script. Would you mind telling me whether "Yes" or "yes" or "bloody hell, let me continue!" is the right answer to type in? Thanks! Erik
You'll need to use TAB or the arrow buttons to select yes (well actually it's already selected normally. So ... just pressing Enter should work. Pressing Esc twice will exit the dialogue, even pressing it once will exit the install after selecting an option. Maybe a stuck button or something?
I guess we talk about different dialogues in that case... I posted a screenshot with what I see on putty...
