With this app you can receive real-time ADS-B used for air traffic control.

Functionality

Select a received aircraft and more detail will be shown. Select "Show on map" to see the aircraft location. ADS-B operates on 978 to 1090 MHz. Even a short antenna attached directly to the Portapack will receive ADS-B when the receive preamp is enabled ("1" displayed).

Map

For map functionality a world map must be loaded on the SD card. The map image and other SD card content is available from the portapack-mayhem github download page.
