The ADS-B panel is not responding right now.

Meshtastic network

7 nodes around the Canaries that publish their position via MQTT. Data: meshmap.net, refreshed every 30 min. Bright dot: node seen within 24 h.

Satellite passes over Tenerife

Next 36 hours, only passes higher than 20° above the horizon. The ISS transmits APRS on 145.825 MHz; the Meteor-M2 satellites send LRPT images in the 137 MHz band. Orbits: CelesTrak, calculations: PyEphem.

Space weather

Kp index now
Kp 0.3
24 h max: 1.3, quiet: good HF conditions

Data: NOAA SWPC. Kp 5 or more is a geomagnetic storm (G scale).

TFS airband watch (SDR)

Our SDR receiver on Tenerife listens to the 118-137 MHz airband and ADS-B transponders. It looks for unusual situations (mayday, pan-pan, emergency squawks). We do not publish the audio itself.
