Morning all - and Happy New Year!
I have fA running on the fA antenna in the attic successfully the last year or so - all is fine, and pretty dandy… 
I’d like to have a look at SDR# and general SDR goodness on my PC in the office, below the attic.
I understand the fA ant is tuned for 1090, but is it possible to share the ant feed over the network, so I could “use the raw signal” on my PC, running SDR# etc?
There is rtl_tcp which will hand out raw data over the network, but generally you can only have one thing at a time using the dongle and dump1090 doesn’t know how to use the raw data from rtl_tcp so you wouldn’t be able to run both at the same time.
If I understand the question correctly, yes you can have a PC program such as planeplotter, etc access data from the RPi. You just need to give the program the local IP address of the RPi and port number to listen to.
As an example: 192.168.1.109:30005
I set my router to give fixed addressees (wired and WiFi) to my RPi on my local network and made it something easy to remember. That way when I add a program and want the data from the RPi, I don’t need to look it up.
That works for ADS-B data, but cy80rg was asking about general SDR use i.e. the raw sample data not decoded ADS-B messages.
Thanks both.
Obj, yup, that’s what I was hoping to do… But looks like I’d need a second wideband ant, which is a different issue…
