PLIW is supplying actual live aircraft data on-screen for aircraft within range of the airport which perfectly accompany the live stream. I guess this is the result when 2 tec heads get together over coffee. Please pay Danny's channel a visit. Hit that subscribe button, and the bell to never miss an epic stream.

• 02/05/2024 - Made a change to the ADSB Receiver Performance Graphs, have made all graphs large. ADSB Receiver Performance Graphs Here  

• 01/05/2024 - Had to reboot the system to deploy a new Linux Kernel version. Before the reboot uptime was : up 10 weeks, 1 day, 13 hours, 28 minutes. I also ran a stack to update and deploy all directories with a docker-compose file. 

• 29/04/2024 - I've made changes to the Acarshub Alerts field in the hopes of recording additional custom messages sent. Acarshub Alers Here 

• 26/04/2024 - The VDLM2 SDR has failed. A spare new dongle was installed and DATA is now being received. 

• 09/04/2024 - Installed NoiseCapt and a USB Lavalier Microphone to the setup. NoiseCapt captures audio levels around my station, and creates a graph of the audio levels and a spectrogram for each entry in Planefence. A 5 seconds sound clip is also recorded for playback. Still tweaking the best location for the microphone, wind noise is a issue. Planefence Here 

• 11/03/2024 - Added VRS (Virtual Radar Server) to the server and site. VRS Here 

• 09/03/2024 - Added TinyGS to the site. TinyGS Here 

• 07/03/204 - Replacement AIS AB Dongle is fully stable so far. Looks to be a faulty dongle, now to go test it.

• 06/03/2024 - Few little updates to the site, layout, content and context. 

• 05/03/2024 - The AIS Dongle, AB has been lost from the system. On investigation the powered USB hub wasn't showing as power or DATA for the port that this is connected to. Unplug/replug has resolved the issue. 

EDIT 1: Sadly this was short lived as the issues has reappeared. 

EDIT 2: A new fresh dongle has been installed and now testing (running live system) is underway, fingers crossed it's resolved. This page should load if eveything is working  

• 28/02/2024 - The Trigkey G4 (mini pc) that is running the Iridium decoding has been subject of some benchmarking testing by Loather_of_the_Hill_People from the SDR Enthusiasts Discord group.  This is all about the max performance to be achieved. Normal service has been restored.
