Exceptional ADS-B Ground Receiver

I recently purchased a ground receiver for my car electronics and I have to say I am beyond impressed. After i put it to the test, the device received accurate signals and provided up-to-date information about air traffic... The setup was easy and the build is sturdy. The best part is the device's dual antennas which increase its range for better tracking. The only downside is that it requires a reliable power source, such as a car battery, to operate. Overall, this is a high-quality product…

Pros
  • Real-time flight tracking and surveillance capabilities for enhanced situational awareness.
Cons
  • Requires significant technical proficiency and knowledge to operate correctly.

There are some "add-ons " in the piAware code and they are useless. Otherwise great hardware.

This is my second feeder for Flightaware. I built the first one myself. This time I wanted plug-n-play. From a hardware perspective, it's amazing. The only downside is a fairly noisy fan, which seems unnecessary despite having it on the window in one of the hottest climates on earth. Second software. It seems that the manufacturer has added some links to third-party tracker sites that cause the built-in piAware site to stop working without frequent refreshes. It still transmits data reliably…

Pros
  • A Sea of Positive Emotions
Cons
  • Fix
