Does dump1090-fa install without piaware talk home to flightaware in any way?

hi,

just two short question cause i’m too lazy tonight for wireshark:

thanx
tom

I don’t think so. For sending data you will need piaware as well.

Settings are made in the config under /etc/default

No. (Other than the obvious thing that when you fetch the packages, that request ends up in our web logs)

/etc/default/dump1090-fa

Just curious - Whats the problem with the “possible” dialing home? Since you ask here, I guess you already feeding.

is there a description/list of all possible config params/values for dump1090-fa anywhere?

Have you tried dump1090-fa --help?
Apart from that, the source code.

Anything in particular you’re looking for?

Just in case you’re looking for some esoteric functionality like a TCP connect functionality, try one of the readsb flavors:
GitHub - Mictronics/readsb: Readsb is a Mode-S/ADSB/TIS decoder for RTLSDR, BladeRF, Modes-Beast and GNS5894 devices.
GitHub - wiedehopf/readsb: ADS-B decoder swiss knife (caution, bleeding edge segfaults :wink: (they tend to get fixed pretty fast, usually before i push to github))

Mine also has a TCP json output that will send out the state of an aircraft when a new position for that aircraft arrives with some minimum and maximum interval settings.
Some rudimentary SBS input (will not be output via beast/AVR only as SBS again, so not a converter).

but thanks for the links anyways! i’ll have a look at it and i have already seen that you have created a lot of good stuff here and on github over the last years.

cheers
