So I found the parts list for the ADS-B but I see no instructions on how to put them all together. Is it self explanatory when you get the parts or am I missing something?
Thanks, Chuck
It is fairly selfexplanatory. The Pi itself is a readymade board, you just need to put it in the case (most cases are a two-part plastic design that snaps together around the board).
Then it’s mostly a case of put plug A in socket B - the Pi has a SD card adaptor for the SD card, a micro USB port for power, HDMI port for video out, USB ports for the SDR dongle (+ keyboard, wifi, etc as needed), ethernet port for networking. The SDR dongle has a single connector for the antenna. It should be fairly hard to plug anything in to the wrong place 
Thanks for your responses!! Yes that is the page I was on, I guess I was expecting it to be harder than just plugging in the cords.
The thing that stumped me the most was where to put the SD card. Once I figured it out, it seemed obvious, but it wasn’t obvious at first.
If you are new to the Raspberry Pi, the most common source of problems is the power supply – make sure you’re using a power supply that can deliver 5 Volts at at least 1 Amp. With the SDR, probably 2 Amps. There are plenty of sources for good power supplies for the Pi – there’s a separate thread on Pi goodies.
Have fun!

powered HUB as solution, i needed to add it to, bcouse my pi didnt pulled the R820T, and my 100mW wifi stick.
