FlightRadar24 just recently sent me a UAT antenna and a new SDR and I have been trying to get this setup on my existing ADS-B RaspberryPi that is imaged with FlightRadar24's images.
I keep running into an issue between `librtlsdr0` being `0.6.1+rpt1` but `dump978-fr24` depending on `0.6.0-0`. Removing `librtlsdr0` removes `dump1090-mutability`
This issue seems to be causing the following from my fr24feed:
Code:May 28 20:06:02 raspberrypi fr24feed[4797]: [reader][i]Connecting to the UAT demodulator on tcp://127.0.0.1:30978 May 28 20:06:02 raspberrypi fr24feed[4797]: [reader][e]Failed to connect to the UAT demodulator on tcp://127.0.0.1:30978
I saw others posting about an install_dump978 script but I am unable to locate that.
EDIT: For additional information, changing back to 10978 seems to have brought stuff back to life but no data is being transmitted:

On my previous post above, the only way to get dump978 working was to install the FlightAware version for `dump978-fa` which now properly attaches to my "Nooelec RTL-SDR v5 SDR". I haven't seen any data come through and I am unsure if that's just because there is no data coming in nearby or there is something wrong. I have switched around the three SDRs I have and all provide the same result. ADS-B is now working fine however.
EDIT: It looks like another process was taking up 30978/TCP and dump978-fa was using 30978/UDP. In networking this is possible but changing the port to 30970 on dump978-fa and fr24uat-feed was able to start collecting data! Hope this helps someone because this took forever to figure out every little quirk!

I checked with my ISP and no ports are blocked. And dump978-fa is currently feeding to FA 978 data. I checked with FR24 support and told me to run sudo systemctl restart fr24uat-feed
And when I do this, it shows the following data

Do you see the disconnection message on the web interface (http://IP:8755). Also, since you have dump978-fa installed, make sure your /etc/fr24uat-feed.ini file looks like this
receiver=uat-tcp
fr24key=KEY
uat-port=30978
bs=no--

Looks just like this

Following is not a complaint or erro report. It is meant to show other members what is normal and healthy behaviour of fr24uat-feed.
Here in Toronto, very few UAT flights, 1 to 4 flights per day. My fr24uat-feed remains connected to FR24 Servers 24/7, but because of this low flight density, my fr24uat-feed is mostly in pinging-synchronizing cycle. This is normal, healthy, and logical behaviour.
