Anmer fingers crossed all appears well !
Ran Basestation for the last 1 hr 45 mins without error message.
Also i must say when it initially opened up it was a lot quicker to load than it has been.
Just out of curiosity if doing what i did how does it start a new .sqb file and where is it
finding all the hex codes from ?
Thanks

Hi Col

I still suspect some corrupt data in the original sqb file but finding is a challenge.

The new sqb file is being populated with aircraft hex codes from your SBS-1/3.  Perhaps you were updating new hex codes with "personalisation" such as aircraft type, registration, owner etc?

Replacing the sqb file with a new, empty one is a bit drastic as you may have used the original one an historical record of aircraft "seen" and had personalised the records?

If not, then a new sqb file can be personalised using thrid-party tools such as Gatwick Aviation Society's SBS Populate or Active Display.
