Beaglebone Black + DVB-T Dongle to feed FR24

Just trying this out - wheezy on micro SD card (for beaglebone)

built FR24 feedin software the same way as the PI
needed to "apt-get install pkg-config" to build dump1090 and "apt-get install psmisc" to get killall command

had to configure FR24feed with --bs-ip=ipaddress of beaglebard (the feeder downloads the base station address from the FR24 upload site and needs over-riding if it's not correct)

login is to /home/debian instead of /home/pi - so some scripts need minor edits

on the whole it looks good

Only slight issue is it's a bit unreliable booting from MicroSD - maybe if I copied the image onto the Beaglebone onboard flash memory - the problem would go away.

Beaglebone - dump1090 uses 30% of the CPU
PI - dump1090 uses 45% of the CPU

(measured using 'top' command)

Beagle bone has more time

(my radar still doesn't appear on FR24 map though - too much competition)
