    @Mech1 Hi Pat, wonder if you could, like you've done for the other feeds, make a Center only feed? The frequencies they use for the 5 sectors are 129.180, 132.580, 120.755, 135.655 and 118.500.

    Would be great for us nerds. Thanks :D

    question about your feed Pat.... what sort of limitations have you hit with the SDR's?

    I'm assuming you have 2 or more 10MHz capable SDR's (or multiple cheap 2MHz wide ones)... how many RX's can you run on the one laptop etc... and what are the laptop specs?

    Unfortunatly a few Patreon subscribers have fallen through. No blame on them they supported the feed when they could.
    If anyone thinks they sould support the feed even for a couple of months, click in my signature at the botton of all my posts and sign up. one or two euro each per month from a few people would be enough to cover the costs.

    Thanks,,, Pat.

    At this stage I would like to see Pat give it up. It might make people appreciate what they have! Just throw the man a few bob!

  • Registered Users Posts: 5,072 ✭✭✭Mech1

  • Moderators, Motoring & Transport Moderators Posts: 9,720 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tenger


    Was pretty intense there for a bit.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,497 ✭✭✭California Dreamer

  • Registered Users Posts: 5,072 ✭✭✭Mech1

    **EDIT: you may want to watch the weather forecast for the next few days. Possible risk to TS activity and a need to take the aerial down ;)

    Slightly off topic - anyone know what happened to Shanwick HF feed? Used to be under Shannon airport of LiveATC but has disappeared in the past few weeks.
