OGN-R PilotAware / ADS-B to OGN

« Last Post by pit on November 26, 2025, 11:15:40 am »

Will PilotAware also be able to transmit ADS-B positions to (OGN) Gliderradar in the future? So far, only the FLARM data transmitted by PilotAware can be seen there. Other data providers have recently started sending ADS-B data there as well.

Hi,

Renewal sub paid, I just wondered how is the renewal / extension managed. Will it automatically extend adter the expiry date, do we have to connect the PAW to the net to update the license info,  or is a new code sent ?

Thanks

General Discussion / Remote Internal Antennas - 2 meter - free to good home

« Last Post by francoisvl on October 24, 2025, 05:25:32 pm »

When I bought my FX, I knew the 2m aerials would be too long so I ordered 1m ones which are much more suitable. I wish this was an option on ordering. However, now I have two remote internal antennas with 2m cables - reception at 869.5 MHz and 1090 MHz. If anyone has any use for these I could send them for fiver to cover postage.

I have downloaded the track files for that day if they are of any diagnostic use.

They will be if you want to have a look yourself.

Navigate to:

https://playback.pilotaware.com/playback

and upload a file where you saw the problem. I'd suggest you avoid making the file public unless you want to.

Now, with the uploaded file processed, drag the white ball along the timeline. You should see the track you recorded in the PAW, along with the number of satellites you were seeing plus any recorded traffic.

Our software is version 20220805.

My colleague flew on 6th October from Enstone to Shobdon, and the problem recurred exactly as before.
Outbound all worked well until a few miles before Shobdon, then "seeking satellites".
When returning all worked well on the ground, but shortly after take-off failed again in the same way. Various attempts were tried (restart the Rosetta, re-log on with tablet, log-on with phone) without success.

I have downloaded the track files for that day if they are of any diagnostic use.

I am very puzzled that we seem to have such a tremendously consistent problem in a specific geography, that presumably other people don't have.

Edit - just realised that there is something odd about software version. When we started having problems I updated the software, so it should be a later version than 20220805! Not sure how that happened, I will update to 20241006 tomorrow and try again.

I don’t think a common frequency applies, but that is something I can try out - thanks.

by any chance, does this coincide with usage of the radio on a particular frequency ?
I recall some users having radio interference from the radio due to a harmonic close to the GPS frequency
