I already had a Pi3 which was doing nothing, I also had a silver subscription to FR24 (don't judge me on that fact) Decided to feed them data, worked OK. I thought I could do better, as I like ADSBEx so tried to follow instructions, and to be honest it's a jumbled up mess of out of date links and frustration. I think I have it right now though (how do I know?) .
Well. Tell us more about how your Pi3 is set up Are you using any raspbian OS (Jessie, Stretch or buster) and feeding fr24? or you are using their SD image? And don't worry, I was like you at first, it was a confusing mess for me as well, but after you get it, you will see it's actually easy. And Im terrible with Linux commands hahaha. But feeding adsbx was well worth for me, I never knew the amount of military aircraft passing by above my head and I live far away from any military zone. PS, if you think you are already set up feeding to adsbx, go to this site: www.adsbexchange.com/myip and check if they are getting your data.
It seems I can't reply here in full but the text of my reply is (I think) added. View attachment 1144 Thanks for your reply once again.
I'm sure it's wine-induced frustration. The link takes me back round in circles. Thanks for the reply though.
Are you in the same local network as pi? If pi is remote SSH and run Code: curl -s https://www.adsbexchange.com/myip/ | json_pp --json_opt=canonical,pretty

My guess: you selected DVB-T when installing FR24. If you are not sure if you have done this, please check what receiver-type is set in this output: cat /etc/fr24feed.ini You can also check if /dump1090-fa is displaying the local map properly. If it is, then the above shouldn't be the problem. But in case you did select dvb-t, this creates all sorts of problems. Fixing it is covered by my instructions on how to install dump1090-fa here: https://github.com/wiedehopf/adsb-wiki/wiki/Installing-dump1090-fa You can also use this script to fix up the fr24feed settins: https://github.com/wiedehopf/adsb-wiki/wiki/Automatic-installation-for-dump1090-fa Also you can check these commands to see if the adsbexchange scripts are running: pgrep adsb -a pgrep socat -a

you didn't install ADSBx stuff. Start over, line by line Code: sudo apt update sudo apt install git socat git clone https://github.com/adsbxchange/adsb-exchange.git cd adsb-exchange chmod +x setup.sh sudo ./setup.sh
[email protected]:/ $ cat /etc/fr24feed.in cat: /etc/fr24feed.in: No such file or directory [email protected]:/ $ Really, I'll update when I figure it out. Many thanks to all for the help though. PiAware is telling me multilateration: warning local clock source is unstable. I'll figure that out also. Have a good evening. Mike

You started the process in the wrong directory Before the git clone, just use this command: cd Then do all that again. It would help if you could copy and paste commands, you seem to be getting a few typos in there which produce problems. Normally after copying with Ctrl-C, you should be able to paste in putty with right click or middle click.

For MLAT to work you need to configure you location on the FA stats page. Does your local map work at http://192.168.1.22/dump1090-fa (you need to replace the IP)
