neilmurg:
Our PAw is installed with internal Antennae and audio routed to the Audio panel bu wire
We prefer the Skydemon Audio, with fewer warnings + runway and airspace readouts, even though this is via Bluetooth, which is quieter and more problematic.
Can we get SD type audio direct from the PAw?
Can SD give us more PAw info, eg METAR, ATOM station #, QNH + station?

Keithvinning:
Hi Neil
Unfortunately, you cannot get the SkyDemon voice alerts from PilotAware.
Sorry.


Regards

Keith

please please please can we have either a mobile native app (ios and android) or have a mobile optimised version of the admin pages? specific things that would be useful:

1) quick way of muting and unmuting audio
2) more user friendly radar page

i find the current pages difficult to use on an ipad never mind a smaller screen!

The one peeve I have with pilotaware is repeated traffic alerts for the same aircraft.

When flying near another aircraft where there’s some signal obscuration the EC bounces in and out, pilotaware gives repeated warnings which can get quite frustrating to get repeated audio alerts, e.g. Warning 3km, 20 seconds later, another 3km warning, then another, then another, etc.

I appreciate that PAW needs to pass on traffic warnings, but what I am asking for is some simple “intelligence” as to whether that warning has already been delivered.  E.g. configurable setting to not alert if the traffic has been reported in the last X seconds.  Exception to this would be for bearingless targets that increase in severity e.g. notice->warning->alert, but repeated warnings of the same plane where the signal drops in and out, or where the bearingless target moves away would be suppressed.  Similarly where a bearingless swaps to a GPS-located e.g. through triangulation and then back to a bearingless as the triangulation is lost,  these would only alert the first time (or every X seconds).

Just to make it clear on my request versus the above:

There's two types of audio mute i'd be intersted in;

1) a global mute/unmute option. when i'm on the ground and until i'm at the threshold i want no audio. i want a quick way at the hold to turn audio back on. it's too fiddly to do this via the webpages right now
2) i agree with @geoffreyC on repeated warnings being annoying. however it would be very hard for the software to determine when to "shut up". one neat feature (but its not possible) is that on the EFB (e.g. SD) or the radar screen you could acknowldge alert once you are visual. it should only the re-alert if any of the following changes (a certain time passes, height reduced by X, distance reduced by Y)
