Hi All ,

Any more news on the SBS3 Firmware v118  issue  - I tried to download it onto my Laptop - Same problem - NO DATA  !! 

I still am on Firmware  v115  - All OK   ;D

Sent a email to Chris at Kinetic - No reply either  !!  >:(

Thanks

I've not seen any announcements but I suspect this issue only affects a recent batch of SBS-3's and Kinetic is trying to resolve it.

Hi Anmer ,

Thanks for the reply  .  Will send a email back to Kinetic today .

Nice and clear skies over Vancouver Island  , but a little cool  .

My SBS3 is busy these days  .  We now have Alaska Airlines using ADS-B  . All their B739's are tracking  .  Hope they upgrade their older B737 soon .

Take Care

Tony

Have you been in touch with Chris Taylor at Taylor Mde RF about this?

No I havn't done so, the firmware I havn't bothered with as that seemed to be an issue that has been going on for a while but as for the SDR's I've only been using a couple of them for my local airport, FAB, as I don't find them as sensative as my Airband radio and thats using an external aerial. I am sure when I got SBS3 last October all 6 SDR's were working.
