New user, need help with the MLAT function

hi andre,

there are different things that could went wrong e.g. the new piaware uses another port for mlat results (30104) than older versions of piaware and dump1090 use (30004) - see this thread http://discussions.flightaware.com/ads-b-flight-tracking-f21/piaware-2-1-3-released-t36047.html. you could look into your piaware log


cat /tmp/piaware.out

and post the result here.

what is your actual dump1090 version? there are older versions that won’t display mlat results.

another option - if you have a second sd-card - try the ‘plug and play solution’ sd-card image

have fun
tom

p.s. regarding your antenna you find very good tips from user abcd to improve reception without money: http://discussions.flightaware.com/ads-b-flight-tracking-f21/three-easy-diy-antennas-for-beginners-t20177.html
