Version 3.7.0 of dump1090-fa & Piaware

FlightAware ADS-B Flight Tracking
204

@suffolk3000

I have missed an important step in the procedure Version 3.7.1 Add-on Package Install , and have added it now. Please carryout this important step given below:

Enabled UAT in piaware-config by setting uat-receiver-type sdr

sudo piaware-config uat-receiver-type sdr  
sudo systemctl restart piaware

Without above step, piaware will keep its connection to dump978-fa closed, and as a result will not send UAT data to Flightaware.

ok cool sorted that now
thanks

Bear in mind though, that as you are in the UK you will not receive any location information on 978MHz. There is a 978MHz UAT trial in the UK but it is a ground station weather broadcast trial, not aircraft position information.
There is information about the trial here:

Thatā€™s a problem with certain DNS servers not understanding a special query from GPG it seems.

Do this to use googleā€™s DNS server until the connection is reset:

sudo sed -i -e '0,/nameserver/{s/nameserver.*/nameserver 8.8.8.8/}' /etc/resolv.conf

Then try the install script again, it should work.

When you are at the stage where you get GPG key problem, the script has already added rbfeeder to the repository list. You can therefore easily install it by any one of the following two methods:

METHOD-1

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install rbfeeder --allow-unauthenticated

.
METHOD-2

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install rbfeeder

The installation process will start.
After few minutes, it will stop and display:

Type ā€œyā€ and press Enter key. The installation process will continue and complete the installation.

Dont Worry, be happy, and enjoy :slight_smile:

PS: Why have you abandoned your ā€œmade too easy with extra featuresā€ thread in FR24 forum? Lot of users trying it and getting frustrated as the image made by you is now outdated.
