Hi Dick,

Use expand-fs to use the SD-Card

Hi Klaas,
 
Tnx for the fast response and offer to help.
I will try myself first, as I want to get hands-on experience 
in this (for me new) Linux area.
Had a Unix training about 30 years ago but never realy worked 
much with it, so the only thing I think I remember is the ls -lh  command 
:-)
 
So far I only downloaded the latest Raspbian Wheezy OS and 
used  Win32DiskImager to copy the image to an 4GB SD card.
What puzzled me is that the SD now shows 
Capacity 55,9 MB
Used 18,5MB
Free 37,4 MB
Not sure what happened to the rest of the 4GB, but I 
guess this is what the  image looked like and that I have to either create 
a partition or use a different program to get the image on the SD 
card.
I have a lot to learn, I'm sure :-)
 
The link works and I have downloaded the .tgz.
 
I have not looked into it myself but understand that MultiPSK 
supports the dongle as well.
What it makes special is that it seems that MultiPSK uses the 
whole bandwidth and will decode all ACARS frequencies within that 
band.
That would be new/great as you can cover at least 3 active 
freq's. 
 
To much interesting things but not enough time to 
play.
 
Cheers,
Dick ((PA-2015, NL-13560, Apeldoorn)

>> Hi all,

>> Just found a great Acars 
  decoder for Linux and the cheap DVB-T sticks (and windows!), it decodes lots 
  of messages on my
>> raspberry pi!, you can now monitor multiple channels 
  for a few dollars!

  messages

>>
>> Download and extract the file to a map, and 
  start the program, watch picture how to start the prg.
>>
>> Dbase 
  and network server included!

>> Now a VDL-2 decoder that would be 
  also a big step ahead!
