    Hi !

    I have been using a raspberry Pi to feed Flight Radar for months, but find the ADSB site of more use to me as it is not censored. Is it possible to do anything to my current setup to add a feed for ADSBexchange without destroying what I have set up now? Can I feed FlightRadar24 and ADSBexchange at the same time from one Raspberry Pi?

    I am doing this as a headerless setup, so need more of a command to run as I can't edit files unless they are on the visible part of the SD card using Windows10.

    I find a lot of instructions tell me lots of background and how things work, but not how to use them.
    Imagine reading a book on transmission systems just to select a channel on a TV!!!

    Just install readsb and then the feed client, both links to the scripts (and some explanation to go with it) can be found here:
    https://github.com/wiedehopf/adsb-wiki/wiki/Raspbian-Lite:-ADS-B-receiver

    The readsb install will reconfigure FR24 to work using the data from the new decoder (readsb).
    fr24feed by default does not expose data and it's much better to have the decoder run as its own process, that's why the change is necessary.

    I don't know what else beside fr24feed you have set up but this works just fine for most people.
