Strange, I thought AirNav had the first space based ADS-B receivers in 2009?

FR24 and FlightAware better watch out.
Has he officially lost his marbles? 8)
Let's hope AirNav does a better job in Space than it did with old fashioned ATC:
As stated by Ingo and also elsewhere in this and other threads VHF was not applied to any further units as it was causing problems with ADS-B coverage. As ADS-B is the primary reason for receivers with VHF a nice to have add on the decision was taken to stop the VHF transmissions until a fix was found. I believe that work is on going to re-instate VHF coverage and to give users control over the frequencies they cover but have no idea when that will be.
And it has the gall to charge $650 for a ConStation (sic)

I received an email from The Chief Thief announcing AirNav is into Satellite Base ADSB.
WOW ! High sounding. In addition, they plan to launch a Micro-Satellite -a square box ...
Well - I won't go near their Con-Station, even with a 50 feet pole. I feel sorry for those who got Conned and wasted their good hard earned money on the Con-Station
( Note: Until today, my cats refused to pooh & pee on my AirNav Receiver - sorry guys,please don't blast me ).
