    What OS, Pi24, Piaware sd card, or Jessie or Stretch?
    Did you install dump1090-fa or dump1090-mutability?

    Give these commands and post output

    Code:
    cat /etc/os-release
    
    apt-cache policy fr24feed
    
    apt-cache policy dump1090
    
    apt-cache policy dump1090-mutability
    
    apt-cache policy dump1090-fa

      Hi! I installed the Raspberry Made Too Easy Package image file. It runs on Raspbian Lite, in console mode. DumP1090 Mutability installed. But everything installed right. But the dongle doesn't see the planes ADS-B signal. So what can I do?

          Check if dongle is plugged into Pi firmly. Unplug dongle, replug into Pi, then reboot, and check if it starts working ok.

          If instead of plugging dongle directly into Pi, you have used a USB extender cable, the problem may be with the cable, not with the dongle. Try another cable or plug dongle directly onto Pi.

            Did you stop dump1090-mutability before running rtl_test? If the dongle is in use by dump1090-mutability, the rtl_test will give claim error 6.

            Did you miss to post this line of output?

            Error opening the RTLSDR device: Device or resource busy

            Try this:
            Code:
            sudo systemctl stop fr24feed
            
            sudo systemctl stop dump1090-mutability
            
            rtl_test -t

              ^^ Doesn't the 'made easy' thread base on -Dev running as a service.. And probably configured FR24 to DVBT not AVRtcp?..

              Much like this guy has asked.. https://forum.flightradar24.com/thre...l=1#post101688

                  NOT ALL USB STICKS ARE THE SAME!!
                  Dump1090/FR require a Realtek/RTL 28xx chipset, and E4000 or R820 tuner
                  FitPower/FC will likely not not work
