change settings

[wiedehopf]

The real question what did you change that required using it?

Did you change the fr24feed configuration?
If so why?

Hello again,

I used your automatic install script again. It seems it did all it had to do So thank you for helping me out again.

I used your script for optimisation for the gain as well. So will have to see tomorrow.

So the fr24feed screenshot you posted were incorrect settings.

It needs to be set to ModeS Beast(TCP)

Host/IP: 127.0.0.1:30005

The github page works fine, did you try copy and pasting the link?
Just click it, the displayed version is garbled.

(Or to copy the link use right click, Copy Link Address)


Just use the automatic script, that makes it work usually.
(it caters for some more excentric problems as well.)


dump1090-mutability shouldn't be installed, so this command should say command not found:

dump1090-mutability --help

This command:

ls /etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled

should not show 89-dump1090.conf, only 89-dump1090-fa.conf. (and a few others)

This command should show the following two lines:

grep -F -e receiver -e host /etc/fr24feed.ini

receiver="beast-tcp"
host="127.0.0.1:30005"


That's mostly it, if you are having trouble you can post the output of this command:

sudo bash -c "$(wget -q -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wiedehopf/adsb-wiki/master/rtl_test.sh)"

It will test the dongle.

Thank you for your reply.

I did as you suggested and used your installation guide.
After doing so, nothing has changed. So I guess the settings were correct already. I have to wait and see if my reception will improve.

Edit:
Having troubles feeding after reinstalling the dump1090-fa.
BTW are you working on your Githup page? Seeing this:

Use this: https://github.com/wiedehopf/adsb-wi...for-dump1090fa

It takes care of adjusting the settings.

Or you can use the manual guide:

https://github.com/wiedehopf/adsb-wiki/wiki/Installing-dump1090-fa

You'll have to go over the dump1090-fa installation again after selecting the correct fr24feed settings.
fr24feed in dvb-t mode installs dump1090-mutability 1.14, which then interferes with dump1090-fa.
(the script should fix up the install pretty much no matter the state, but the guide does as well if you follow all steps)

Hello all,

yesterday I received my new antenna (https://www.ebay.de/itm/1pcs-ADS-B-P...E/253915016420) and also my RTl-SDR dongle. (https://www.rtl-sdr.com/buy-rtl-sdr-dvb-t-dongles/) All to improve my reception.

I connected the dongle to my raspberry and rebooted my raspberry. I am wondering do I have to change the settings in myip:8754.
Do I have to change the receiver in the RTL-SDR dongle.


I am also feeding to FlightAware and Planefinder. Installed dump1090fa.

As always thanks for all the advice
