General Discussion / Display on Runway HD

« on: November 20, 2020, 02:24:16 pm »

Sorry for more silly questions.
I went into Perth yesterday, which was busy.
Numerous audio alerts but quite low volume in the headset.
No traffic seen on Runway hd screen, while still receiving audio alerts.
Switched off WiFi then back on. One target appeared then disappeared. Nothing seen at all on the way to Kingsmuir though numerous traffic still in Perth circuit. I don’t know how many aircraft were transmiting anything. So this may be just luck.
If this is a power problem is it possible to connect the Anker power pack to Paw and recharge it from the aircraft at the same time?
Radar display showed several contacts when we were on the way to Pitlochry. But not on Runway hd.
Power is from the aircraft 12 volt through an Anker USB adapter. Volt meter reading solid 12 volts.
Baffled?
First time I’ve used it properly so not sure what to expect.

This has prob been done to death somewhere but I wouldn’t know where to find it, sorry.
Thinking of getting some sort of second hand phone, as big a screen as possible and WiFi capable.
For a separate radar display.
Question.
Does it need a SIM card installed to run or not?
Scuse my lack of computer literacy.

I’ve put this in Technical as well, is that ok?
