Hello / question

Hello all, newbie to all this and really enjoying it so far….

In my skyaware map I see 1 “aircraft” constantly - reporting an ident of TXLU01 / altitude is ground but its sending messages and at my location has a really low RSSI. Clicking on the aircraft it says it hasn’t flow in over year.

Any thoughts ?

Hi, see this thread:

TXLU01 always reported in my stats

https://flightaware.com/live/flight/TXLU01 I’m still getting familiar with data feeding, so wondering why this aircraft constantly shows in my live stats. Its on the ground, landed 4 four months ago and is around 2,000 miles from my location and I’m receiving thousands of messages from it. My home made coax collinear is good, but not that good. Is there a reason for this? [Screenshot_20200518_102642]

It is a “Ground Vehicle”.

Such stations appear and disappear frequently. These can be calibration stations close to an airport.
