PlanePlotter is a windows decoder of live digital position reports from aircraft and plots them on a chart. Using PlanePlotter, you can see a radar-like display of all those aircraft around you that are transmitting the appropriate digital messages including ACARS, ADS-B and HFDL. Full Trial available for 21 days.

Free Windows ADS-B decoder for RTL-SDR dongles included in SDR#. It allow to broadcast data locally or to radar software sever such as Planeplotter, Virtual Radar Server, adsbSCOPE.

adsbScope is a freeware Windows application designed for processing _ADS-B_ (Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast) frames received from a compatible decoder. It identifies aircraft, calculates their real-time positions, and presents flight parameters in both alphanumeric tables and a graphical display. The software interfaces via a virtual COM port, receiving raw frames to provide detailed situational awareness, including a global coordinate grid, continental coastlines, over 4,000 **airport** locations, and major cities. Users can overlay OpenStreetMap tiles and view world state boundaries, with each tracked aircraft rendered with labels showing altitude, speed, heading, squawk code, and flight identifiers. When paired with the adsbPIC-decoder, adsbScope enables advanced hardware control, allowing users to toggle data filters for specific frames like DF17/18/19, adjust analog signal thresholds for reception fine-tuning, and manage system resets or bootloader activation directly from the PC. This functionality provides a customizable toolkit for hobbyist radar listeners, offering a robust alternative to commercial tools for processing aircraft data. The software displays up to **1090 MHz** transponder data and can track aircraft up to 250 nautical miles.

Virtual Radar Server is a free windows decoder of ADS-B signals received by several radio receivers and support even networked data feed. The Server publish a Google Maps-based display of aircraft positions and flight list

You can now build and run your own ADS-B ground station that can be installed anywhere and receive real-time data directly from airplanes on your computer

Build and run your own ADS-B receiver for 100 USD with a Raspberry Pi

This project focuses on testing and comparing various antennas for receiving ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast) signals, utilizing software tools like RTL1090 and Virtual Radar with an RTL-SDR dongle. The goal is to evaluate the reception range ("ReceiverRange") and performance of different antenna types when tracking aircraft signals, particularly around the Amersfoort area. The project includes a comprehensive photo album documenting the antenna designs and setup processes, serving as a valuable resource for enthusiasts building ADS-B reception systems

f4hxn.fr is the personal website of amateur radio operator F4HXN, showcasing his projects, station setup, antennas, digital modes, WSPR experiments, ADS-B reception, and technical guides. The site shares tools, real-time data, logs, and practical resources for radio enthusiasts interested in HF, VHF, UHF, SDR, and modern ham technologies.
