    Hi abcd4567,

    ¿Are you using in your setup dump1090-mutability?

    No, I'm using the plain dump1090 from github.

    By the way, one can also use beast if preferred. Just change the --results portion to:
    --results beast,listen,31003
    and then change the receiver type to beast in VRS. I've noticed fewer bad messages in VRS using beast. Also, you do not need to use port 31003. You can use any open port as long as you use the same port number in mlat-client and VRS receiver.

    Have fun!

    Hi, thanks for your clarification. That make sense to me. With Dump1090-Mutability I was not able to get data in the listening ports, tryed with different configurations.

    Cheers
