Could not find an area for home made concoctions:

 :) Still working on it but ranges of over 300 km are possible already.

Thanks for the DIY section.  ;D
Am I allowed to post a picture of my Visual Basic Program running on my home brew receiver?

Yes, receiver is about 15 km east from Airport. Hills to the north as can be seen from the plots. This was 2 days log. Colors are ICAO straight to scaled RGB !

Edward,

That's very impressive.

Do you work in electronics?

Tom

Doesn't look like he's updated his site in quite awhile.  Information is pretty stale.

There is another one doing almost the same thing with a SAT-TV receiver module and feeding PP

Albeit in French.

I still plan to do the replication of the SBS-1 classic frontend, the prototype is operative

I was going to post the link you made to your project, but I didn't want to steal your thunder!

Some progress has been made with the super critical parts being available now. Future PCB availability is subject to enough interest and proof of concept from the more GHz eduacted crowd of world wide web ultra high waves engineers. A complete review is available at http://miniadsb.web99.de (also in English).

An inflight/in-aircraft trial was successful today. As miniadsb is a passive device it can be used inflight most of the time, with the usual restrictions during take-off and landing. As are SBS-1 and Radarbox (don't know about Aurora).

Directly below the upper transponder antenna of a B737-300 the device showed no signs of overload, but was still able to track adjacent airplanes on approach to BNN VOR and in the BNN hold, too. I will try to make some portion of the flight log accessible here as a video later.

A further enhancement of the DIY will deal with an FPGA based decoder. This will still be very low cost.
