    Here it is in two parts - not sure how to get the full length of the long line of script in one screenshot

    Thanks

    Looks perfect :).
    If you run own VRS instance you can modify last argument to --results basestation,listen,31003. Define receiver on your VRS and see results.

    I've tried this but don't see any traffic. Do I use the IP of the Pi in the address or 127.0.0.1? Also do I need to tick push receiver?

    If you change it as I described you have to create receiver on your VRS.

    MLAT data will not be visible on dump but you can see them on VRS.

    Of course results will be available only if mlat-client will be connected to server and synced.

    This is the VRS setup which is identical to what you suggested. Also is my modified MLAT scipt correct? VRS Setup.png VRS Setup.png MLAT3.png MLAT3.png

    Comma is missing between results and basestation.
    Code:
    --results basestation,listen,31003

    That's the script I have. VRS does connect but there are no messages. I'll leave you in peace now as i've taken up a lot of your time and will tray and sort this later.

    Many thanks

    No results until mlat-client will be logged in and synced. Be patient...
    And please do not re-send mlat results to ADSBx. Only traffic received by your Pi. Your feeder looks very good, many aircrafts reported.

    Don't be worry about my time.
    I decided to support this website because I love it.
    Who else can give you unfiltered data from all over the world?

    Although I was told 24hrs ago that my Rpi setup was fine, I'm still not showing in the Mlat Feeder Stats, and there is no feed of data to my VRS. Any suggestions?

    You are present on sync-matrix but not synced with any other station.

    This is all getting very frustrating. I was feeding to port 51358 as suggested by an Administrator. I submitted a form on Sunday (20th October) to request that port. Still no update on my request and today my feed/traffic is not showing on port 51358. I've not changed anything at this end. Not sure what to do next?

    Can you see traffic on local dump?
     
  18. NigelR

    Yes, all seems to be working fine locally

    Did you reboot Pi?

    I had a short Broadband problems yesterday so the Pi lost connection for about 5-10mins
