Receiving adsbhub data

FlightAware ADS-B Flight Tracking
1

Appreciate this is not FlightAware related but I am practicing something on Virtual Radar for a remote server but trying initially on Virtual Radar running on localhost.

adsbhub.org say You can receive shared ADS-B data from all contributors by creating TCP connection to:

<data.adsbhub.org>
TCP port: 5002

Data is provided in: SBS/30003 format (CSV), Compressed VRS

I have enabled my host IP on adsbhub settings page then issued following command;

socat -u TCP:data.adsbhub.org:5002 TCP:localhost:30003

No luck with data received, tried sbs protocol instead, tried port 30005 all to no avail.

Bet this is easy and I am missing the obvious but appreciate any suggestions.

Once you have confirmed data going to hub, you can receive data from them by setting up a receiver and using format basestation, address data.adsbhub.org port 5002

Thanks, guess that can be fed into Virtual Radar Server.

Yes. That’s for doing it through VRS.
