Thanks everyone for help and suggestions, I think I have cure it. My sharing key has os capital Os and 0 zeros was just a matter of working out which was which. I don't think they should put letters or zeros in the key as it can get very confusing.
Thanks again

RTL dongle and microradarbox are one and the same thing
As Mark advised you are now online and showing aircraft so it looks like you have worked it out, well done

You are online and sending data right now. Checking around, there are not a lot of aircraft in the air around you.

1) What is the output of the following command?

Code: [Select]

sudo systemctl status rbfeeder
2) Are you using the original antenna and cable that came with the Micro RadarBox?

Hi thanks, I have done this at least 5 times today with no luck. I have a photo copy so I know that I am inputing correctly. It is a we bit confusing with different instructions ie 2a 2b 2c 2d etc etc I cant work out what abcd to use. It says rtl dongle or rb software but don't mention the actual rbmicro so never know if I'm doing it right.

Hve you tried following this guide https://www.radarbox.com/raspberry-pi/guide

I suggest you copy and paste instead of typing as it is very easy for mistakes to creep in

« Last post by thechipman0 on January 21, 2021, 06:35:30 PM »

I have been running my radarbox micro on raspi for about 2 weeks now. After the initial set up it ran online but was not sending any ìnfo to rb, after a lot of help from you guys I eventually got it to work. The coverage was bad at 61nm so the other day decided to put antenna on roof, this actually never increased coverage?? but then realised that although online again not sending any info. Now suddenly it has gone offline and it seems no matter what I try it won't go back online. I know that I'm not the best person with technology but I just don't know where to go from here. I'm running rpi buster my station is EXTRPI020882  ps I have tried most fixes in forums but keep seeing different methods so not sure if I'm making it harder to fix or what. All I want is a complete installation rundown with instructions on deleting what I have already done. A lot to ask I know but I'm getting desperate now.
