Schinderhannes Posted November 16, 2020 Report Posted November 16, 2020 UNIT IS SOLD The SkyTrax100 uses the 978MHz datalink frequency band, which is one of two channels available to pilots in the United States airspace for ADS-B. Avidyne’s SkyTrax100 Receiver (shown above) provides Flight Information System-Broadcast (FIS-B) weather information, including NEXRAD radar, METARs,TAFs, AIRMETs, SIGMETs, Special Use Airspace (SUA), and Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs). The SkyTrax100 will also receive traffic information directly from nearby 978MHz-equipped aircraft, and indirectly through the rebroadcast of 1090MHz-equipped aircraft via 978MHz ADS-R. Traffic information from aircraft not participating in ADS-B is received from ground stations via 978MHz TIS-B transmissions (Traffic Information Service-Broadcast). Frank 760 424 2058 Quote
