sudo wget -O mm2/modesmixer2_rpi2-3_deb9_20170924.tgz "https://www.dropbox.com/s/vzuviwuy0610tu5/modesmixer2_rpi2-3_deb9_20170924.tgz?dl=1"
Step-3 :
Move to folder mm2 which contains downloaded file
cd mm2
Step-4 :
Extract downloaded file
sudo tar xvzf modesmixer2_rpi2-3_deb9_20170924.tgz
Step-5 :
Create a blank file mm2.sh
sudo nano mm2.sh

Copy paste following code into the blank file, then Save (Ctrl+o), then close file (Ctrl+x).
Note: Replace xx.xxx:yy.yyyy in last line by your actual latitude and longitude.
/home/pi/mm2/modesmixer2 \
--inConnectId 127.0.0.1:30005:ADSB \
--inConnectId 127.0.0.1:30105:MLAT \
--web 8787 \
--location xx.xxxx:yy.yyyy \
Step-8 :
