My 978 receiver is showing two types of traffic. Predominant are ADS-B messages from light aircraft. There are a few listed as “other” ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/flightaware/original/3X/e/c/ec339da6707ba07cc48770d477b19792a5860f41.jpeg) What other than the expected UAT signals are being received? MLAT is zero as I have it disabled. ---

“other” is essentially anything without position information; could still be UAT (you just never heard a position) ---

I managed to have 1090 and 978 antennas onto the same RPi. I see 978 traffic in SkyView978. What I do not see is reports of the tracking on the FA My ADS-B page. When the antennas are using the same PiAware, will the 1090 and 978 traffic pop up in the same list “Flights with positions from this feeder in the last hour” ? When I had 978 on a separate feeder with a separate ID, it showed up as expected. ---

it will be 32-bit version. That is fine, of course. As long as it does not interfere with the 64-bit build. ---

Are you still having trouble with this? Or have you given up with 978 UAT? The reason I ask is because I just setup a PiAware (RPi) with both 1090 and 978 receivers successfully and can assist you if you still would like to pursue this. My PiAware instance currently has 1090, 978 and MLAT enabled but we can disabled MLAT for your config if you don’t want to use that. I really just need to know what your Piaware-config.txt file looks like. Which you can access by using the following command. Sudo nano /etc/piaware-config.txt Assuming you are using a SD install. If not we can still do this it just might be a bit different. Just let me know if your interested! ---

> [@Northmeadow](#): > > Assuming you are using a SD install. If not we can still do this it just might be a bit different. Just let me know if your interested! This thread was about compiling piaware on Odroid. piaware was not building faup978 which is necessary to feed. I’m pretty sure that particular bug has been fixed and it was running fine on the Odroid. But using an Airspy at 20 MHz in parallel did not work, so now the 978 stuff is on a separate pi anyway.
