adsb.lol feed client

ADSB.lol is an open source ADSB+MLAT aggregator.

• These scripts aid in setting up your current ADS-B receiver to feed adsb.lol and others!
• They will not disrupt any existing feed clients already present

Changing the configuration

This is the same as the initial installation. If the client is up to date it should not take as long as the original installation, otherwise this will also update the client which will take a moment.

curl -L -o /tmp/LOLfeed.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adsblol/feed/master/install.sh
sudo bash /tmp/LOLfeed.sh
