|
|
I have a situation where it would be of great help to be able to see
"radar" information while I'm on the ground, parked in a truck about
3 miles away from an airport in the Mojave desert.
I have a Garmin 480 and a mode S transponder (GTX33) sitting on a
shelf. Is it likely that I'd be able to get the TIS data while I'm
on the ground?

The system works on "line of sight" with the source radar. So, if you meet that criteria you should be able to get information. It doesn't take much to block the radar.
