ADS-B HW support #1097

Closed OK1UNL closed 2 years ago

OK1UNL commented 2 years ago

Please is a possible check support of Flightaware Prostick Plus?? This very good inexpensive piece of HW is based on RTL2832U + R820T2. I tried connect it to last version SDRangel. ( Win10Pro 64bit) SDRangel cannot found (recognize) this one device. On other hand I tried this one HW with Avare apk. on android smartphone and works well. Also this "blue dongle" works with others ADS-B SW well.
Thank you for effort! VY 73! Ladislav OK1UNL

Does it work with any other SDR software on the same Windows machine?

Have you installed Zadig etc? Eg. first step here: https://discussions.flightaware.com/t/how-to-install-pro-stick-dvb-t-on-windows/25070

Thanks for question, my answer YESS. On this one Windows machine me using multiple RTL-SDR based hardware and SW too. Under SDR# running original RTL-SDR v.3 dongle, Airspy R2 too. Zadig driver must run on this one PC machine. At SDR# Flightaware Prostick Plus dongle does not work. Reason is clear. Author and his team made "clean code" of SDR# Me using also VRS or ADSBscope 2.7 dinosaurus together with RTL1090 ver.1 and 2 too. I am participate at Flightaware project 24/7/365 and my RX there Flightaware Prostick Plus on RPi 3B+. This is based on linux distro Raspbian. Generally I have not problem with this one cheap but powerfull HW. ( in reality RTL-SDR v.3 optimized for 1090MHz)
SDRangel does not detect this one "blue dongle" Why?? Maybe PID, VID problem ???

Thanks for reading and help for community. VY 73! Ladislav OK1UNL
