What’s your configuration?

Raspberry pi 3+, Flightaware Stick + Raspbian stretch (SD image).

Why do you need beast-splitter at all?

Is it this station: https://flightaware.com/adsb/stats/user/OlegMenkov#stats-92755

Then you are running the piaware sd-card image.

This should fix it:

sudo piaware-config receiver-type rtlsdr
sudo reboot

If it doesn’t, please show the output for this command:

piaware-config

I am use usb flightaware beast-splitter

This is not something the beast-splitter is needed for.
You’ll have to better explain your setup if you don’t want to try what i proposed.
(which is the correct thing to do for the flightaware prostick)

So this is a disassembled FlightFeeder?

If you can reassamble it and run the standard FlightFeeder image, that’d be great.

Unfortunately, this happened after a lightning strike and the raspberrypi burned out. So I restored it by running on a new raspberry pi4. I had to install a Raspbian buster version on pi4.

Aha! Ok, that makes sense. Currently the FlightFeeder image is still on stretch, so it won’t work on a Pi 4 at the moment. (we do plan to update it to Buster - it just hasn’t happened yet)

In any case, I independently restored the receiver to work by buying burnt raspberries and I’m honest with the company)
Currently, everything works well on Buster.
