    Folks,

    I currently feed adsbX via a computer situated in a friend's house. This may have failed and I am not in a position to resolve. I would like to start feeding from my home computer and currently have a custom port.

    Can I feed a new set up to my existing custom port, can two computers feed the same custom port?

    Yes .. one will go to 30005 is custom port is taken

    We need to get you both Pi setups.

    I currently have 51321 as alias fairmead - the remote computer was feeding to that port number but doesn't appear to be feeding data and not sure I can resolve it so would like to use that port (51321) if possible.

    That is my current IP address but not sure how to check if feed reaching ADSBx - can do so on FA and FR24 but not aware of any commands on ADSBx

    There is a grey box at the bottom that shows any data streams arriving from that ip address.

    OK, have that now, had temporarily suspended my ADSBx feed over confusion with a second feed to a custom port, shows feeding now to port 30005

    What does that link say ... should be obvious ... if you are feeding or not

    One entry for beast
    One entry for MLAT


    Should detect at least 13 lines of output.

    Initially it didn't show data so not obvious, once data shown then output became obvious.

    All appears OK now, just initial confusion with a custom port I have with another feed.
