Yep, exactly. Sadly current soapysdr throws a generic exception in this case, not something that’s easy to specifically catch and turn into a more useful error.
Hi followed all instructions but added id as xxx xxx xxxxx
it says sending info but not showing on map
a bit confussed as to what it could be
im wanting to run both 1090 and 978
any help please
also unsure how to exe patch 0002
john
Main problem is probably still having dump1090-mutability half installed at least judging by the background.
Use these commands to make sure they are no longer install and follow the rest of the guide.
Has he BOTH the dump1090-fa AND dump1090-mutability?
If he has ONLY dump1090-mutability, then it is NOT a problem to run it with dump978-fa + skyview978. No need to remove and replace it with dump1090-fa.
I have dump1090-mutability + gmap.html + dump978-fa (v 3.7.1) + skyview978 (v 3.7.1) + piaware (v 3.7.1), and it is working perfectly ok.

I dunno what happend i swapped pi’s half way through so will have to restart over again with stretch lite
also is this possible to combine both on 30005 to feed FA
If you have freshly written Raspbian Stretch image on microSD card, and have NOT Installed anything else on it, then blindly follow the steps in the following post:
The following command takes a very long time to complete. Sometimes, there is no output for several minutes, giving impression that the Pi has hanged, though it has not. Be patient.
yes i did panik a bit but all looks well now albeit no aircraft asyet 2 vhf antennas on dongles and 00.45 in morning so im happy so far
see pic im not using my main id but no id used on this combo for now
i will get 2 antennas made up for 978 -1090 very soon

After installing graphs, wait for 15 minutes for data collection by graph tools (rrdtools+collected), then check graphs in browser at following address. The UAT graphs are at the bottom.
