PAW sans PAW Rx/Tx

This should be a simple one for you gurus  :D

A guy I've been conversing with in Oz is looking for an easy way to get ADSB In and then displayed on his MGL EFIS (via RS232). I've described PAW and how it would also give Mode C/S indications but obviously not OGN R and no multi-lateration when it comes out. I don't know if Oz Runways (similar to Sky Demon) is able to display traffic but that is easy enough to find out and it is more the traffic to his EFIS that he's interested in and the FTDI cable is an elegant and simple solution.

Now, the obvious snag is not being allowed to transmit etc on the PAW frequency in Oz but what I would like to find out is if there is a way in which PAW can be used as an ADSB receiver etc without it transmitting on the PAW frequency and how we could go about disabling that function.

That's it.....over to the experts  ;)

Thanks Lee. I shall pass on your info and see if that works out as the best solution to his ADSB In quandary.

I think it is  :)
