    Don’t use adsb exchange! They up and sold out for money a few years ago. I stopped feeding them.

    Use one of the not for profit ones. Like airplanes.live, adsb.fi, or adsb.lol

      Sweet! Unfortunately just paid a year for exchange. Do the others honor requests to have certain planes not appear?

        Nope. The 3 I listed do not filter any aircraft from being visible. They display everything the feeders submit to them.

        I have a whole ADSB/VHF/L-Band feeder station on the roof of my garage and I feed the 3 I listed and ACARS data to airframes.io

        I do feed flightaware…but only because they’re up front about being for profit and the fact they give feeders a free pro account. But sadly they do filter since its one of the requirements when have access to data directly from FAA. The pro account is nice for setting up alerts for flights family or friends may be on just so you know the plane made it.

          Awesome, thanks for posting. I just recently got into plane watching, listening to ATC, etc. One day, when I’m able, I’ll have a setup like yours.

      omg thank you so much for this i didnt know about that, i was thinking about to build a ADS-B feeding box for exchange D:

      airplanes.live, adsb.fi, or adsb.lol seam to have the exact same feature set as ADS-B exchange minus the replay function, but i can life with that :D

      Edit: airplanes.live seams to have replay feature the button just moved up lol
