FlightAware ADS-B Flight Tracking

The signal statistics is part of the dump1090 software.
They are automatically outputted to the /var/run/dump1090 directory on FlightFeeders and I think also on piaware.

Also you can output them to the console if you run the dump1090 -stats or -stat-every option

There are external programs that also read the RSSI values and some that make nice Zabbix graphs.

I’d love to see the next version of Skyview come with a technical screen where people could view all the good stuff and poke different settings all from the browser. In particular include a process to try and find a reasonable gain setting, rather than the various hacking and testing that has to be done now (not that it’s not fun).
