MODESDECO2

MODESDECO2 is a ads-b receiver/decoder and will also decode the secondary mode a/c signal from planes. you can output this data to such programs as virtual radar server etc across your home network.

modesdeco2 ( downloadable from here ) is a good program but due to the google maps not being displayed correctly is now perhaps not so good for some people

How ever there is a way round the map situation ( that's assuming you don't want to get a gooles map key )

launch modesdeco2 and you will be able to use all the screens ( including the google maps screen, but it will have 'for development purposes only' )  printed across it

but if  you want to see the planes plotted on a map without the 'for development purposes only' run virtual radar server and add the raspberry pi address of the rpi running modesdeco2 to your virtual radar server list of receivers from there within virtual radar server click on

menu - receiver and select the receiver running modesdeco2 from the drop downlist

you will now have the advantage of being able to view data from both programs

remember dump/acarsdeco/modesdeco etc will run on raspberry pi zero so you dont need to make a huge investment to have multiple receivers ( the rtl dongle will probably cost more than the pi zero's )

use the below for a quick check that your programs are running ( will check on ports 30001,30002 etc ) 

sudo wget -o - -q http://192.168.1.15:30003

use your ip adress
