Hello! I just picked up a radarbox usb receiver. Everywhere I read it seems like the only way to feed data to radarbox is with a raspberry pie. Currently I have a dedicated R210II server in my server room running virtual box. I was thinking of spinning up a new virtual machine with windows and feed that way. Is there an issue with this?
Thanks!

Hi
There is not problems using a USB stick with windows to feed RB24 and I don't foresee any issues doing what you suggest.
Use the V6 software with the stick http://www.airnavsystems.com/download/ANRB/ANRB60002Setup.exe and the drivers for it http://www.airnavsystems.com/Download/ANRB/Drivers/microRadarbox-Drivers-20150411.exe

I've been trying to get this to work for the last two days. I've installed the drivers and radarbox software to C:/airnav My flightstick lights up white. But in the radarbox program its shows a red box and says hardware not connected... hmmm.
-
I wonder if I can boot this on a ubuntu VM instead.

are you running windows 10? I have tried this many different ways. But I just keep getting No hardware detected on radar box :(

hmmm... So I went out and purchased windows 8.1 last night. Unfortunately I'm getting the same issue. Radar box just keeps saying no hardware is connected. Windows is seeing my flightstick no problem but its coming up unspecified. I've ran the microbox driver exe multiple times but it just runs a cmd bat says "Successful" I do a restart and it still shows unspecified.

Also did you try updating the driver through your unspecified

I am using driver Zadig with Win 8.1. Zadig works perfectly well with Win 8.1
(With Win 10, Zadig may or may not work)

Go to OPTION-1, and carry out "STEP 1 of 3" ONLY.

ah!,.. I've only tried zadig with windows 10.. I purchased a copy of windows 8.1 yesterday. I will try this next. I'm on a mission to get this working haha
-
Just an update.. I feel like I made some progress.. When I opened up zadig I didn't see my dongle even when clicking list all devices. I did how ever see "bulk interface 0 and 1" I installed zadig winusb drivers to both of those bulk interface and restarted my windows machine. Now when I open radarbox it hangs on checking devices.
-
After a few days I finally got it!. What I learned the drivers simply just aren't working since the latest windows update. zadig is what made the magic happen but I've tried it on windows 10 and windows 8.1. This method only works on windows 8.1. Thank you for your help ABC!

My Flightstick works with W8.1 and W10. However before I got the Flightstick I had aNooElec dongle and it used the Zadig drivers. The flightstick works with an adaption of the Zadig drivers and I wonder if that is why I and lots of other users have not had any issues with the Flightstick on any Windows version.

I'm sure that is it. How long till my account get's upgraded and I can see my station on RB24? That 24 hour window is about right?
-
Should be done automatically but if not contact support. You should see the station on RB24 as soon as it starts feeding. New Pi's came online at Radom Poland, Kolding Denmark, Essex UK and Bristol UK yesterday, any of these you?
Alan

The USB sticks radarbox sells are rtl-sdr compatible.
Probably the best answer for problems with those will be the Zadig drivers.

I just reached out to support. My station is in Brookhaven, NY. Thats what I entered when first setting up rb software. They asked what my station ID is but I'm just trying to find it. It's not connected to my account yet so I haven't Been able to find it that way.
