Greetings, FlightRadar24 community. I am completely new to tracking hardware, and I am looking for some help to set up an ADS-B antenna and feed its findings to FR24. I have a shopping list that I'd like to link, but apparently I shouldn't do that with less than 3 posts.
So, you get full text instead!
My shopping list currently has:
A Raspberry Pi 2.
A 1090Mhz ADS-B antenna.
A DVB-T USB stick. (comes with its own antenna)
I'm missing things here, without a doubt. I hope you can tell me what all is missing.
A few questions:
I've read that regular coax cables are not good for this purpose? or does it not make any difference?
The ADS-B antenna uses coax, but where am I supposed to connect that to? The Raspberry Pi 2 doesn't have any coax input.
Will I need the antenna bundled with the DVB-T stick?
I hope this isn't too much of a hassle. As long as I can at least get my shopping list completed, I can kind of figure out what goes where on my own.
Thanks for reading!
