Another hidden secret is what enabling DX reception does actually.

-x is unrelated to oversampling. It simply tells the decoder to trust more frames that are likely to be good.

Probably named after DXing - Wikipedia

I’ve collected some explanations on the various command line switches here:

HOWTO: Airspy mini and Airspy R2: Piaware / dump1090-fa configuration

Command line option explanations I’ll collect some explanation on the command line option for airspy_adsb in this post: -r Reduced IF bandwidth This option limits the bandwidth of the signal visible to the ADC to about 3.5 MHz instead of the default 9 MHz. This can be useful in some situations when you have some broadband noise right over the 1090 MHz band. But mind you, reducing the bandwidth of a signal also smooths the transitions between 0 and 1 levels in the time domain. This makes the…
