Saving decoded messages - error message "not enough fields"

[jeagh]

I'm having great success with dumphfdl and a poor antenna. Now I'd like to plot the aircraft's position on a map. I've followed the directions to another user's question but I get the following error message:

$ dumphfdl --soapysdr driver=sdrplay --sample-rate 250000 21928 21931 21934 21937 21949 21955 21982 21990 21995 21997 --output decoded:basestation:file=/home/phil/positions.log,rotate=daily

The error message reads:

dumphfdl 1.6.1 (libacars 2.2.0)
Could not parse output specifier 'decoded:basestation:file=/home/phil/positions.log,rotate=daily': not enough fields

I have complied in all of the options except etsy.

Please put the frequencies to the end of the command.

This is not required. Channel frequencies can be anywhere on the command line.

The correct syntax is: decoded:basestation:file:path=/home/phil/positions.log,rotate=daily .

Thank you, problem solved.

Rather than save the decodes to a file I'm now using VSR to display the aircraft in real time. The only problem that I have now is my antenna is too poor to track aircraft but they do show up on the map.
