Hi All

Just joined this forum, I've been running a RTL1090 feeding into FR24 for about a year now on a Laptop.

I have created a script to email me when something interesting is flying over or something is flying low. I often connect to it over the internet to see what's above then house when I am out at work.

Recently I decided to create a more portable solution which I can use when I am travelling around the county where we have lots of aircraft flying over and usually when I am unable to see them, just hear them.

So I brought a cheap Windows 8.1 Tablet and installed RTL1090 and it works great, but is really hard to read RTL1090 with the small screen. To make it better I have written a program which reads the data from RTL1090 and presents it in a more friendly way for a small screen tablet user, without a mouse / keyboard.

My plan for the program is to eventually release it as free utility to the community for others to use.

Because it's on a tablet my wife has nicknamed it an aPad (with the a standing for anorak although aviation is more appropriate)

I've attached a photo, please excuse the app title, it's just a working title at the moment.

Hoping to seek advice from the community but also hope to be able to help others.

Cheers

Andrew
