"Effective Wednesday, May 15, 2024 at 0800 hours ... [we] will transition into Wildland Fire Season. Dispatches for
wildland incidents will be enhanced to reflect in-season apparatus requirements based on specific zone threat levels."
Dozers and Air Ops are ramping up and getting checked off on their certs & quals for the season... there's been a lot of interagency trainings and what not going over the past few weeks.
I got a new outdoor antenna for my #ADSB 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.
@mikolasan I have a typical problem of ground-based radars, I mostly see airplanes that are high in cruise altitude. Only the ones in the bottom right are low, as they are landing at the nearest airport
@firephoto yeah, I have some low hills in front of me, so low flying aircraft hide behind them. And I only see maybe 150 degrees, from south west to north
@bbaugh@quakes This is a screen shot using Selenium. If I were you, however, I would use folium (if you are able to... python) I do this with @nwstornado_bot and @easwatch -- using something like this.
I know there are plenty of folks here who are #adsb nerds but what about #ais? Are there open AIS networks like that have been built for capturing ADSB data?
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. #ADSB#aviation
20% off at the Flightaware store, for the ADSB/aviation geek crowd. Good prices on band pass filters and receivers, they typically are only during their Black Friday sales. #ADSB#aviation#sdr
