Hello, I’m not sure if this is the correct section, as I have just registered, but as an ADS-B data contributor and working at a flight school, we have installed an ADS-B transponder on our training aircraft and would like to add it to the site’s database.

AirNav Radar Discussion / Re: Cannot configure airband receiver on Rpi 5

« Last post by abcd567 on March 18, 2026, 03:20:42 PM »

It seems the package rtl-airband-rb is not available in RB24 repository for bookworm and bullseye. I could find it only in RB24 repository for buster, that also armhf architecture.

Anyhow I downloaded the rtl-airband-rb armhf package and installed it on my RPi 4 with Bookworm by following method. As I don't have airband dongle, I could not test if it is functioning OK.

Please also see screenshot attached below


STEP-1

Code: [Select]

wget https://apt.rb24.com/pool/main/r/rtl-airband-rb/rtl-airband-rb_0.1.1-2020061700.1_armhf.deb 

sudo dpkg -i rtl-airband-rb_0.1.1-2020061700.1_armhf.deb 



STEP-2:
The second command above will give following message, listing dependency packages required to be installed to complete the installation:

Code: [Select]

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of rtl-airband-rb:armhf:
 rtl-airband-rb:armhf depends on libconfig++9v5 (>= 1.5-0.4~).
 rtl-airband-rb:armhf depends on libmp3lame0 (>= 3.100).
 rtl-airband-rb:armhf depends on librtlsdr0; however:
  Package librtlsdr0:armhf is not installed.
 rtl-airband-rb:armhf depends on libshout3 (>= 2.2.2).
 rtl-airband-rb:armhf depends on libstdc++6 (>= 5).
 rtl-airband-rb:armhf depends on libvorbisenc2 (>= 1.1.2).

dpkg: error processing package rtl-airband-rb:armhf (--install):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:

Issue following command to install dependencies and complete installation

Code: [Select]

sudo apt -y --fix-broken install

STEP-3:
After installation is completed, you can open configuration file by command below and make necessary settings:

Code: [Select]

sudo nano /etc/rtl-airband-rb.conf



After modifications, save the file and restart rtl-airband-rb

Code: [Select]

sudo systemctl restartt rtl-airband-rb

AirNav Radar Discussion / Cannot configure airband receiver on Rpi 5

« Last post by len2307 on March 17, 2026, 11:10:00 AM »

I am having trouble installing rtl-airband-rb software on my raspberry pi.

I have purchased the VHF flight stick receiver to use.

I have a Pi 5 running flight aware ADSB software with rb feeder installed for ADSB feed ID EXTRPI646082.

How can this be fixed?

This is the error I am getting. (images attached)

AirNav Radar Discussion / Feeding RB24 from Windows Using "Radar Box Data Sharer 1.20" Without a DVBT

« Last post by abcd567 on March 16, 2026, 08:08:12 PM »

Since 2015, I am feeding Radarbox24 using their lightweight Client "RadarBox24 Data Sharer 1.20.exe" Please see screenshot below.

This client can be downloaded from:
http://www.airnavsystems.com/download/rb24/RB24DataShare120Setup.exe

This client has a limitation: It requires a source of data on port 30003 of Windows. It is not capable to connect to port 30003 on a RPi with dump1090-fa.

In past I have been using a DVB-T dongle plugged into Windows PC, and ran either dump1090-win (by Malcolm Robb) or JetVsion's RTL1090.

Instead of using a dedicated DVB-T plugged into Windows computer, I decided to use port 30003 output of dump1090-fa running on my RPi.

Since the the Windows Client "RadarBox24 Data Sharer 1.20" is NOT capable to connect to any port outside Windows PC on which it is running, I created on Windows PC, a "Port Proxy" of RPi's dump1090-fa's port 30003. The "RadarBox24 Data Sharer 1.20" was able to connect to this Port-Proxy, and started feeding Radarbox24. :)

I created Port-Proxy on Windows 11 by following method:

(1) Started Windows PowerShell as Administrator
(2) Issued following command in Power Shell to create the Port-Proxy:

Note(1): the local IP192.168.12.23 used in these commands is the Local IP of my RPi running dump10190-fa. Please change this to Local IP of your RPi

Note(2): the command below is verlong and it's right-most part may not be visible directly.
Please scroll right to see and copy it in full.

Code: [Select]

netsh interface portproxy add v4tov4 listenport=30003 listenaddress=0.0.0.0 connectport=30003 connectaddress=192.168.12.23



(3) To Chech Status, Issued following command in Windows Power Shell

Code: [Select]

netsh interface portproxy show all


The output of above command is as below:

Listen on ipv4:             Connect to ipv4:

Address         Port        Address         Port
--------------- ----------  --------------- ----------
0.0.0.0         30003       192.168.12.23   30003


(4) Removing / uninstalling the port proxies:
The Port-Proxies created by above netsh commands are persistent, and do NOT disappear on reboot of Windows Computer.

If at any time you want to permanently remove / uninstall these proxies, use following command in Windows Power Shell (run as Administrator).

(4.1) To clear ALL proxies with one command:

Code: [Select]

netsh interface portproxy reset 


(4.2) To remove one proxy at a time:

Code: [Select]

netsh interface portproxy delete v4tov4 listenport=30003 listenaddress=0.0.0.0
