Feed Setup Pictures / Re: Updated ESSL - tower in the woods 2021

I have to say, I am very surprised by getting an answer to a several year old post that quickly, pleasantly surprised! I am now in the process of preparing my own outdoor ADS-B antenna setup at home. It is not so fancy, its only on my balcony :D I live locally in Linköping so if you ever need any help with the setup give me a shout. I don't have much experience with radio and wont climb up the tower, but keep it in mind anyways. Just send a message if you want any contact details.

How does the tower setup work? I assume someone owns it and has given you access? Seems like a fantastic location based on the images and it obviously works great based on the distance to the aircraft I can listen to.

Glad you like it! I have done some changes since the first setup, now 2 airspy hf+ is used as receivers. Also a RPI 5 is used instead of the computer. The same location is used for both ESSL and ESSP feeds. They are practically the same, just the TWR freq is different.

I actively manage and maintain the feed. I visited the location last weekend to add a UPS for better uptime.

(there is about an 8 minute discussion in the link above from 6Perth with Oliver Petersen)

Australia is constructing a drone air traffic control system in anticipation of a significant increase in unmanned aircraft flights and the introduction of flying taxis over the next decade.

Airservices Australia Head of Transformation Uncrewed Services Luke Gumley joined Oliver Peterson on Perth Live to discuss the future of drones in Australia.

“We estimate today there is about 1.5 million drone flights. Some analysis we commissioned is projecting that in 2043 we expect to see 60 million flights, so things are certainly ramping up over time,” Mr Gumley said.

“We know that drones will have some level communication, but from an air services perspective part of our critical role is making sure we’re able to coordinate a lot of the flight paths, and to really manage that safe growth.”

Aviation Audio Clips / Small plane crashes in Bellevue after engine failure

(not the best of audio, and only one radio there, so there was nothing on the freq after he deployed his CAPS)

A small plane crashed near Bellevue’s Newport neighborhood Tuesday evening after a reported engine failure, according to police. There were no reported injuries.

Bellevue police and fire departments responded to multiple 911 calls about a plane in distress that deployed its parachute around 5:04 p.m. in the 6500 block of 127 Place Southeast, police spokesperson Seth Tyler said.   Cirrus SR22T GTS G5 experienced an engine failure and the pilot decided to activate the CAPS. After the deployment the aircraft came down in the Newport neighbourhood of Bellevue, Washington.

The two individuals who were onboard the Cirrus SR-22 told officers they were on a training flight out of Renton when the engine failed. They deployed a whole-plane parachute that allowed them to bring the plane down in a controlled manner, Tyler said.

I have been listening to the ESSL feed on and off before and lately basically every day. Always imagined that it was an antenna on someones house roof or something. Very cool setup. Thanks a lot! Is this still the current setup or has it changed?

Listener Forum / Re: ZLA Sector 31- can hear pilots but not the controller.

The most likely cause is that the feed site is too far away from the ATC transmitter site.  Have you heard the controllers on this feed before or has it always been pilot-side only?

Hello
I have a new feed EFHA installed and online for 3 weeks. The tower is only open from 7 to 13 UTC so there is little traffic outside of that time. Is it possible to publish it online?


It will be published soon.
