Re: ADS-B on Raspberry Pi 2 problems

Thanks for the tip about the stalk - I'd only noticed/ looked at the options for Virtualradar program. With the RTL-SDR, I can see planes up to about 150 miles away, subject to terrain. About 1% are between 150 - 200 miles away, with the odd one beyond that. The system is nothing special - a piece o...

Re: ADS-B on Raspberry Pi 2 problems

Thanks for the info - I'll give it a go sometime, although I don't plan to upgrade my ADS-B to a RPi 3 just yet - I'm using a spare RPi 2 for the purpose, which works perfectly adequately with a RTL-SDR dongle. Strange about the 8080 output. I don't like the VirtualRadar ouput much - the vertical li...

Early days but the RSP1 isn't sending MLAT data, which my RTL-SDR device was doing - it is only sending data for ADS-B or '...

Re: Using Memory Banks

Restarted SDRuno & it worked. :)

Not sure why it hadn't worked before, although I guess it's possible that, as a new memory bank, SDRuno hadn't registered its presence.

Now I just need to work out how to use the keyboard shortcuts - they didn't work earlier either!!

Using Memory Banks

I have (yet again!) been trying to get my head around the SDRuno software. Unfortunately for me, the Manual sometimes hinders, rather than helps, as does the cookbook. I have downloaded the cookbook's recommended HF database from eibispace.de & imported it successfully. However, I haven't been able ...
