I wasn’t having this issue, but my brother was. He moved from east coast to west coast USA, and it was not updated (even though it said it was. I looked at the HTTP respose of the update call for update, and it said “error: coordinates too far apart”.

It allowed changing the lat / long one degree at a time though, which I did to ultimately fix the problem. Not ideal (software bug probably on flight awares side) but works.

So, find the coordinates of your current location of your flightfeeder, then start changing your lat 1 degree toward goal, save, change a degree, save, etc until the degree matches. eg:

-75.543030
-76.543030
-77.543030
…
-117…543030

Rinse and repeat for long:
39.696944
38.696944
37.696944
…
32.696944

Once the “whole part” of the number is updated properly, you can now do “use current location” in the browser to change the “decimal part” of the lat /long, which will work since it is not adjusting the “whole part” any.

Worked for me.

That was regarding a FlightFeeder, but it must work just as well…

I was trying to avoid that, but I just did it anyways. Thanks
