Well I built myself a 1090Mhz J-Pole for the shits and giggles

Tracking airplanes with a Raspberry Pi and an ADS-B receiver

How to track flights and airplanes using a Raspberry Pi and an ADS-B receiver.

We now have an #ADSB Rx station at the club shack, thanks to members chipping in to help set this up.
We are feeding many services, including #FlightRadar24 #ADSBExchange #ADSBfi #ADSBlol #ADSBHub #FlightAware #PlaneWatch #RadarBox #OpenSky #1090MhzUK and more.
Group members can now enjoy premium features of some of these services.
We still have more to do to improve the setup, as currently when we Tx on other bands, the RTLSDR goes deaf. Perhaps a nice cavity filter! #1090mhz #AmateurRadio

#introduction

I'm a ham radio operator (W8EMV) located near #KARB , grid #EN82dg . My general purpose ham radio stuff is at @w8emv .

I run an #ADSB tracker feeding @ADSBexchange and another service, using a Pi 3 as the host. My #1090MHz antenna is not very good, and I hope to be able to get better coverage with some antenna work.

Favorite craft to track is #N3A #A31AA0 "Wingfoot Three", particularly when it's over Michigan Stadium for a Wolverines game.
