Hi Gav,

I am pretty sure that you cannot obtain Mlat information out of PP to send it to another application. It was certainly the case when it was originally incorporated into PP. At that time PP was unique in providing Mlat data and Bev didn't want it distributed elsewhere. I assume that bit of the software hasn't changed.

You could always consider getting a Flight Aware stick, as FA send back the Mlat data to you and you can do whatever you like with it. So sending it to VRS is perfectly possible.
