We truly believe this marks a major step forward for interoperable eConspicuity!
While the AeroTracker is already quite advanced have you ever considered Charterware as a source of position information?
We have not been talking with them so far.

Hi,
Do you have an indication of the level of precision that the MODE S warnings provide are we talking +/- 1 Km? or More or Less?
BR,
Jens
The Mode S distance/range warnings are based on received signal strengths. Obviously, these can vary based on type of transponder, installation issues and your own receiver’s mounting location. Best to consider them as a rough indication of possible range. The most useful (and accurate) parameter is the relative altitude between you and the other aircraft.
