Title: BaseStation.sqb adding new entries by itself?
Post by: tekmanoid on June 23, 2016, 10:07:05 AM

- Running ModeSMixer and have specified a BaseStation.sqb database file.

I downloaded sqlite3 and run a few queries on the BaseStation.sqb database file and noted to my surprise that when I repeated the command

SELECT Count(*) FROM Aircraft;

the TOTAL number of aircraft increased by roughly +1 every hour. I do not have ActiveDisplay or anything similar doing updates to the database...so my question:

What is adding these new entries to the database? Does ModeS have any such functionality? What am I missing here?

Thanks
Alex

Hello Alex,

ModeSMixer2 has a built-in function that adds the new entry record (ICAO24 address) about the new aircraft to database file, if it's missing, but the data were received.

Wow Cool :)

Would it be possible to add the info from the ones missing that information by checking against an online database?
