Two Independent 1090 Mhz ADS-B Receivers on One Pi (No UAT 978)

Hello everyone,

I have been searching the Internet for a long time for a solution like this. Has this project been further developed @abcd567 ? The current Raspberry OS version is Bockworm and this in x64, which almost all feeder services now support. I think it’s a very cool thing, I’m facing the same problem with two different ADS-B antennas. I’m always amazed at how backward I am at not being able to do such projects myself, but maybe it’s also because there are only 24 hours in a day.

Greetings Stephan

i’d imagine this solution still works just fine.

As an alternative, just use 2 RPis? Makes it quite a bit simpler.

It’s a question of money. My budget for gambling that my wife gives me is small less shoes, she doesn’t want to buy. The usual problem :wink: But Black Friday is coming up soon, let’s see what’s on offer.

I run two Pi’s at the house. One is the main dude, best/highest antenna, Low Noise Amplifier, good cable, Airspy Receiver, Pi4, hardwired to the router. The other one is my test system to play with and experiment. It too has a good antenna in a first floor window, Blue Flightaware receiver, Pi3b. It runs Piaware and a nifty little DNS tool named PiHole to block the advertising web pages from messing with our internet experience. Having a test system opens the possibilities and lets you experiment without messing with a perfectly good system doing what it does best.

Have fun out there, this is a hobby and hobbies are important too, just like her shoes. Making your systems better and learning new things is never wrong. Best wishes!
