    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]

    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

    Ok thanks I also have another site running 3.5.3 so does that need anything done to it?

    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.

    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.
