Planes are Mode S when beyond ~500 miles #300

Closed alexkuck closed 2 months ago

I travel with my ADSB receiver. When I go beyond ~500 miles from my readsb-set-location all planes are listed as "Mode S" and I see only altitude, track, and speed. When I return to within ~500 miles of my readsb-set-location, the planes reappear as ADS-B and I see position data again.

Is this intended functionality?

readsb also has a gpsd input if you care for an automatically updating tar1090 map.

This needs to be added to the readsb configuration:

--net-connector localhost,2947,gpsd_in

You can press H on the tar1090 map and it will follow the changing location automatically. The dot and rings will be updated independently of pressing H.
