Title: Display differences
Post by: Smaragd on June 11, 2018, 04:49:17 pm

I have 20180520 loaded, a colleague has an earlier version (I think 20180129). Our configuration page settings are the same - Mode-CS+filter (Beta on his). On my traffic page I can see him (CSAP) but not myself. On his traffic page he can see me (CS-P) and also himself. Is there a reason for this difference? He has had a occasional "ghost" target (an aircraft symbol on his SkyDemon) very close , 100ft below which turns with him.I assume it is generated somehow from his own transmissions. I have checked that he has the correct (and matching) registration and Hexcode. Thoughts please?

Hi Smaragd

If he can see himself, he has not entered his ICAO Hex code correctly into PilotAware
This would also explain the 'ghost' target

Thx

Thanks Lee. Presumably the same could occur if the Hex code was correct in the PAW but not in the transponder?
