Hmm, HH-60 Pavehawk, JOLLY96 making an awful lot of noise tonight.

I got a new outdoor antenna for my rig. It increased my range by over 100 nm.

My next step will be getting a Raspberry Pie so I can use FlightAware's PiAware system, which is going to run me around $150.00. I have to save up for it so it will be a month or so before I get it.

The reception from my Virtual Radar ADS-B display which shows a lot of aircraft data

Looks like the traffic above my head is growing. I am getting data from all those planes with my RTL-SDR and a DIY antenna

This was how I did it, or at least what worked for me. www.n9drb.com/notes/#ADSB feeding

UAL1277 just had one heck of an abort of a landing at LAX. "MAMA MIA!"

My receiver is picking up quite some traffic today

I changed the cable from my antenna to the RTL SDR receiver from a noname Chinesium that came with the dongle to a proper radio cable, and I seem to be getting a bit better reception. Cable quality matters not only to audiophiles :D

An Alaska Airlines flight from Juneau to Seattle is currently broadcasting the callsign “STUPID” via ADS-B

I really need to move the receiver to the west side of the house and out of the front yard. The only excuse I have is that it's cold and I don't wanna. :blobbeecomfy:

And I'm back to collecting aircraft positions using and FlightAware

Haven't seen it fly recently, but determined the alert sound for the next time it goes up, LOL. (NASA's U2 spy plane)

I should wire up something to have my PC play Ice Cube's "Ghetto Bird" every time my bot here detects a helicopter circling over Compton, LOL.

My ADS-B receiver is the closest one to this fire... Should have checked it earlier today when the aircraft were working the fire, but given it has direct line of sight to everything I'm sure it was helping...

I know there are plenty of folks here who are nerds but what about ? Are there open AIS networks like that have been built for capturing ADSB data?

Working on fixing up my plane bot code, but find this screen shot amusing (the wrong aerial map), but it says "PRISON"

Really should get this bot working normally... https://m.ai6yr.org/

Stolen vehicle pursuit on the Angeles Crest (he's not going to get far... one wrong turn and it dead ends) https://www.facebook.com/ktla5

Pursuit algorithm... When more than 3 helicopters are within 5 miles and all have the same heading, there's a pursuit underway....

ai6yr, to adsb
@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org avatar

Ah, forgot about that bot. Now to see if I can revive it... possible flights circling in Los Angeles. Logic works, but screen shots do not seem to be.
