Aussie Feeders

[Stealth]

Is anyone else in Oz not getting any traffic from FR24, all I'm seeing is a blank map on both desktop and Android?

Great to see Ayrtech has a T feeder station labelled YLHI .... thats one place I'd been pondering how to get some equipment onto Mt Gower and then how to feed the data back to FR24. Well done.

Have not seen it but that is great news.

@Oblivian on a Pi where do you check and set the Ground Traffic indicator? I am running dump1090mutability 1.15 and feeding FR24

Sorry, didn't see this previously.

The extra output data on the config page i think, and during startup of the feeder if you watch it manually. Server side switch it seems.

Despite me being 13kms away and getting some ground data, due to the distance it appears to be toggled off for me. Says
Ground traffic: no

During start.

So I noticed the low level of traffic around the secondary airports and this lead me to cross checking between
sites. These two images from different sources were captured this morning, the extra traffic was also seen on
another site. FR24 could be lacking in coverage in this area? pull the other one.SE Melbourne 1.pngSE Melbourne 2.jpg
Same thing seems to apply at Bankstown.

Yeah, I'm monitoring via the FR24 box status page.

Hi,

first, let me ask how do you detect it has rebooted?

Person replied with they were monitoring uptime.

[YSWG]

Yeah it is Radarcape based, have had it for around three years IIRC. Just rebooted again! :/ Have logged the issue with support.

[Oblivian]

Yeah, the FR24 box itself reboots. Looking at my uptime on the box itself, looks like it rebooted itself again as uptime is 20 minutes (UPTIME: 0 days 00:20:08) yet I changed the Ethernet cable about two hours ago.

Only noticed the issue as the box totally locked up today, in turn looking up my internal Radar Server. RPi is running like a dream (with poor coverage due to a poor DIY antenna that I've yet to replace).

Radarcape based? Someone just reported similar to the yahoo group

YSWG:

FR24 Box Rebooting ? as in a different issue to the stats / connection issue fixed yesterday ?

[YSWG]

I've occasionally seen Qantas use a callsign such as QF22D and had assumed this is because it was significantly delayed. Would this be right ? I suppose the 'two numbers' in the suffix instead of 'two letters' could allow this to continue and not add to the confusion .... ?

D is just stating it is a Q400 (DH8D), where as the Q200/300 has an extra digit and not B (Q200 = DH8B) or C (Q300 = DH8C).

Anyone having random reboots with their FR24 box? Trying to problem solve any and everything simple before going to support. Trying another Ethernet cable to see if that is the cause.

I have a data dump of Aussie feeders that’s some 2-3 years old which includes YJAA and YJSS. I can’t find which airports these codes are/were allocated to. Anyone have any ideas ?

Heh, mis associated to jallabad? :P
