acarsdec on the Radarcape
acarsdec is a software which uses a DVB-T stick in order to decode up to 4 channels ACARS signals within a 1MHz band segment.
The decoding process requires some mathematical functions and obtains plenty of processing resources. Due to that it is not guaranteed to run on a heavily loaded Radarcape and/or together with FR24 feeder. You may need to disable some features.
Installation requires some skills in handling a console but at the end is easy.
Prepare Installation
First, you need to install build tools on the Radarcape.
opkg update
opkg install packagegroup-core-buildessential
opkg install cmake
opkg install libusb-1.0-dev
This will take some time.
Install librtlsdr
