[MAMS] [BRMS] Anyone Interested in Airpland Scatter at 24GHz.?

[Robin Szemeti]

Yep, I don't feed to adbsbexchange, as its a commercial thing ... my
enthusiasm for providing free data to commercial services is low.

I used to feed to Open Sky (opensky-network.org) but when I had issues with
the API their admin told me that they had no interest in fixing it, they
were only interested in researchers and if radio amateurs couldn't use that
was just "collateral damage" and they didn't care, so I don't feed there
anymore.

Currently I feed https://airplanes.live/ ... their admin is super helpful
and keen to support amateurs!  My software uses that feed currently.

What my software has a unique edge is the integration with KST, especially
the "map" facility, so you can see where other KST users are ... and the
integrated chat facility so you can have a side channel to coordinate your
attempts ... when a rotator is connected, you get a "track" button that
will either track a specific aircraft or the best aircraft in the list.

My software is browser based, so nothing to download and will run on a
tabletor phone which is handy when out on a hilltop ... and you get all the
other useful stuff like path profiles, headings to point, etc ..  It also
includes beacons ... and shows the path profile, which heading to point and
the frequency ... plus lets you send spots into the DX cluster ..

Unfortunately, my beacon data is mostly Europe based ... I don't know of a
good feed of US beacon data (location, frequency, callsign) ... I'd love to
extend it to better support the US users.  If you know of a good source, do
let me know!
