A few more things to change. Apparently Google will not longer give is altitude for free. so 3.5.3 image MLAT will never start Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> IndexError: list index out of range usage: mlat-client [-h] [--input-type {radarcape_12mhz,dump1090,auto,radarcape_gps,avrmlat,sbs,beast,radarcape}] --input-connect INPUT_CONNECT [--results RESULTS] --lat LAT --lon LON --alt ALT [--privacy] --user USER [--server SERVER] [--no-udp]
I fixed it. Freakin' Google getting greedy. So .. all 3.5.3 images feeding ADSBx will not longer run the MLAT client on boot ... ugh
Yes. file is in /home/pi/adsb-exchange/ called adsbexchange-mlat_maint.sh nano adsbexchange-mlat_maint.sh and manually replaced the MLAT client --alt ALTITUDE with --alt 100 or whatever altitude in feet is ... --- or you can just add zerotier and let me know. I'll go fix it.
CTRL+O to write out (save) with nano Use arrow keys. CTRL+K cuts a line (deletes full line) CTRL+U pastes previous cut line It's pretty straight forward. Sucks Google decided to be dicks along with FA on the same week. UGH.
ADSBx-piaware-3.5.3-2.1 ModeSbeast Raspbian Jessie Earlier this week I also looked at the sync-4 list and saw that my feed "freqman-7502e9" was missing. From February the Rpi3B has worked flawlessly. Fortunately, after installing in February 2018 I created the Code: >> /tmp/adsbexchange-mlat.log 2>&1 command in the adsbexchange-mlat_maint.sh, in which I saw: mlat client: error: argument --alt: expected one argument. In adsbexchange-mlat_maint.sh I replaced the derived value --alt $ALTITUDE with the actual value --alt 11 Maybe not neat, but simple. Joop.
Yup. That's the easiest solution. Google must have shut off the API for people to use with this new pricing for google maps. Bastards.
