The default driver for the DVB dongle is obviously the DVB one in almost all the distros both for the RPI and for other devices so the possible/probable requirement to Blacklist or remove the DVB driver is a common one.

You can have say one DVB dongle and another for SDR use by having both drivers but either forcing them to the correct devices via comman line options or UDev configurations based on say the device S/N rather than just the USB ID

The fun never ends. Last night the power goes out and stops PiAware on the Pi 3 of course. When power comes up, The pi 3 beat my router and the time was set by NTP 41 minutes late. So need to do either:

sudo service ntp restart

sudo reboot

Next I change my password and needed:

sudo piaware-config -user username -password

The password will be prompted for.

Weird thing was a sudo /etc/init.d/piaware start did not work. Finally a sudo reboot did.

Lastly a look at the log in /tmp/piaware.out shows connection or enter:

sudo piaware-status

A check on Piaware:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo piaware-status
dump1090 is running.
faup1090 is running.
piaware is running.
dump1090 is listening for connections on port 30005.
faup1090 is connected to port 30005.
