Piaware and adsb x both on VRS. It is possible?

[gavin323]

Hi. I have the piaware image on my sd card and also feed into adsb x but is it possible to get local mlat returns from both of these into a merged feed on VRS?

After trying, I have not had much luck as I’m only finding one seems to work (usually piaware) piaware I have used both 30105/06 and adsb x is returned on 31003 but despite the different ports it doesn’t seem possible to get mlat returns from both into a merged feed unless I’m doing something wrong?

I have found for some reason that despite my area having a lot of feeders, adsb x have much smoother mlat tracks

@gavin323

adsb x is returned on 31003

As far as I know, Adsbx-mlat is returned on port 30157

Thanks. 30157 works. I just need to try and suss out why the tracks are jerky on some mlats in VRS with both running.

This is piaware only mlat

This is with both merged

You’ll generally need to pick one mlat source or the other; trying to combine two produces exactly this sort of effect because the two systems are making different predictions and there may be a time offset too.
