    Hi

    Just received my ADS-B antenna USB from Noobs something. I have the driver's installed and it's listed in device manager. I've run the software to setup feeding but stuck on the black screen asking what the com port / device address is?


    I've tried looking in device manager, but doesn't say what com port it's on.. any help?

    I got it working ish.. In the fr24feed page, I'm showing as connected.....

    Windows/generic/i386/1.0.19-15
    Updated: 18:20:52 GMT+0000 (GMT Standard Time)
    FR24 Link: Connected via UDP
    FR24 Radar Code: hidden
    Local IP(s):

    Aircraft Tracked: 0
    (ModeS & ADS-B)
    Aircraft Uploaded: N/A
    Receiver: dvbt, Connected
    MLAT running: N/A

    In the feeder terminal, it says connected, processing images, terminated constantly.. Is this normal?


    Not so sure as to why its not seeing anything tho, Antenna to small, to low?

      No, terminating and no reception is a stick/config issue.

      Feel free to post/discuss suggestions here http://forum.flightradar24.com/threa...4840#post74840 (http://forum.flightradar24.com/threads/9875-Info-Updates-Ammendments-Placeholder?p=74840#post74840) This guide is not to be taken as officially sourced support information.

      Incorrect configuration set - Hardware not starting. Check for:
      - USB stick does NOT have the required Realtek RTL28xx chipset or Rafael Tuner
      - Conflicting software locking USB device to 'in-use'
      - Missing zadig driver installation step for windows (cannot read USB devices)
      - Error with additional commands causing Dump1090 to terminate
      - Dump1090 (or similar) already currently running
      - Windows detected and using wrong USB. Add: --device-index x
      Need to perform the visual checks there and look at the starting window as it is launched for indications of what is failing.

      Probably stick type, or driver

      It shouldn't ask for a com port for a dvbt stick unless the wrong device was selected

        Thanks, I didn't know about the uncheck Hub setting on the driver install. Installed that and it seemed to worked, detected 2 aircraft, not saying terminated any more, but, now I'm showing as Online - No Data

        just always pinging?

        I've not put the antenna outside yet, so maybe could be that

          Did you manage to get any further, I have installed an antenna, it appears to he syncing with FlightRadar24 but I'm not detecting any aircraft. There are generally a lot of aircraft going overhead, but usually at their cruise altitudes where I live, I thought the indoor antenna would be able to detect those with a clear line of sight.

            That may be a sign for a stick with the wrong chipset.

            Stop fr24 and run rtl_test (or note the very first couple of lines when launching sudo fr24feed.. no 'service').

            If it reports a Fitpower, you won't be able to tune to adsb.

              After stopping fr24feed, and then running rtf_test I get the following output

              $ rtl_test

              If I then try and start fr24feed up again I get this output

              The only thing I can see is the ERROR on an rmmod, but it's trying to remove a module that isn't loaded already, so is that an error really?

              Any other suggestions would be great, I'm really struggling to figure out what the issue is.

              Cheers in advance
