Air!Scout can optionally be equipped with a RTL-SDR stick, and by that serve some SDR applications. It comes with preinstalled software from the Open Glider Network (see http://wiki.glidernet.org/start). Air!Scout is able to include the results of this receiver into its own database and show Flarm aircraft together with ADS-B and MLAT data in a common map. However, in order to work correctly, some steps have to be done after installation of the hardware:
- Check that GPS is stable (Status -> GPS)
- Create the configuration file for OGN receiver (Settings -> External Sources Settings -> <tbd>)
- Select a location name according to the naming rules
- Enable bias current if you are using Jetvision's Active Diapason Antenna
- Enable reception of local results

- Watch the incoming messages from OGN receiver (Status -> Local Flarm Receiver Connection)
In case of troubles, disable and re-enable the OGN receiver part within Settings -> External Sources Settings -> Local Flarm Receiver Data Reception -> Save
