I know at the moment I haven't got a ADS-B reviever set up, but I was wondering.

Does ADSBscope (or 1090 from jetvision.de)  have the ability to "dump" the data to a CSV or text log file?

Reason I am asking it would me a interesting way for me to back up what I have seen.

The newer versions of the adsbscope programme from sprut can be started with logging enabled via a command line option. I did test it once but cant remember how it worked.

Before that I enabled the TCP server and used a TCP port logger programme to read the TCP output from adsbscope. The programme I used was TCP-FILE - the demo version is sufficient. As it logs everything and continously this procedure produces megabytes of data !!

I am using RTL1090 but havn't found a data logging option. But as it also sends data via a TCP port, you could log the TCP output - see above.

RTL1090 port 31004 provides for a clear language ASCII data interface. Data are dumped every 2 seconds only, so this port can be used as a logging source without too much data being created.

Thanks you both.

I will take both ideas and look at what I can do with excel etc.
