i think its now working as it should

image attached from todays flight -Elstree - Lee on solent - Lydd- Elstree

BTW - the go button doesn't appear on my iphone when in landscape mode- can only see the go button on the desktop version

appreciate all the help, would never have solved this on my own

apologies - my error for not pushing the go button

would this also impact my ability to see PA Atom ground stations?

i flew this morning after checking the cable connections, the cable shows infinite resistance between the inner cable and outside shield.

I also unplugged and replugged the aerial in

I think the 90 degree connectors only fit one way - male one end and female the other

These are the connections ive used, I purchased them in June 2019 so perhaps its been a long standing issue?

Ive just noticed they do say RP so perhaps thats the issue!  Ive just purchased a non RP pair to try for next time.

Ive rechecked the Vector plot for this morning  flight for the PA output  it was only a short flight, Elstree to Turweston

Still showing poor coverage for the PA when compared to the ADSB

Thanks for the help - Keith and Peter and others, BTW Keith Im David Perl at Watford ATOM Ground station

Thxs Peter

I am using 90 degree SMA adaptors to make the wire out easier to the aerial cables, any chance its these?

If not, next flight ill switch the outputs around to see if that makes a difference

hi Peter

Cables were purchased from yourself and i did triple check i had the correct connections to the rosetta

ill check again when next at the aircraft

i no longer have the internal aerials so that option is out

hi Peter

Rosetta is mounted behind the dash and each Aerial is mounted by the pilot's feet, on the underside , the PA one on the right side and the other one on the left side

the ADSB antenna is about 300mm in front of the PA aerial

could it be to do with the ground plane? perhaps i did not do a thorough job of scraping off primer to get a good ground plane?

seems to now pick up a PA reading on the vector diagram

hi Peter,

the MAC address is  B827EB94287B

does that help?

Its unlikely to be a fault with the aerial as i replaced it just before the flight on 22nd Dec however that doesn't exclude a fault with the Rosetta

i'm waiting for a weather window to get down to the plane to check the config

thxsa again

David

thxs Peter for festive response!

Reg is G-CILG

Hex code im using from the G-INFO database is 406C84. I remember inputting this when first setting up the PA however that was a few years ago and ive updated to the rosetta since

Last flight i made was 22/12/21 - it does show this flight

Ill take screen shots of configuration when i next fly

just checking with the vector feature

I get good coverage on all 4 quadrants with adsb but with pilotare selected its shows nothing.

I have an external aerial located on the belly of the aircraft

whilst flying, the webbrowser page showing the functionality of the pilotaware unit is all green

am i doing something wrong?

It works intermittently and then drops out occasionally Lee

that said, even if it worked flawlessly i am still going witht he SD as the display is much better

suggest you set connectivity to "Live Data when Planning"
that wya you can see weather, NOTAMs etc while on the ground
but stops it trying to connect once you're out playing

It still pops up on this setting

Love this product more and  more.  I was using the PA through my Dynon SV system although the display is pants when compared to the SkyDemon display and display of traffic conflicts.
I Was getting a few glider alerts as well on Saturday via the OGN which was even better.

So im now using the PA connected to SD using the PA connection  in the connectivity settings on SD. Ive noticed if the SD connectivity is set to online mode for data  the popup keeps coming up at the bottom saying loss of data, although SD still works fine and if I touch the screen it goes away for a few minutes. .When i set this connectivity to offline mode  it works fine and no popups.

Any suggestions?

I dont think this happened when i was using Flarm mode
