 |
|
Hi all,
Does anyone have experience with powerFlarm?
What is the best antennas position?
I use one last week and I receive signal only when two antennas are in vertical position.
When the powerflarm body is positioned on top of the panel below windscreen, with antennas in 45° position no signal.
Many thanks

I have a full wave loop antenna, it fits neatly behind the baggage bay bulkhead. Inside the garage, doors closed
With the airport 29.6km (according to google maps) off my starboard wing, the ATIS is so strong MAX squelch still
Doesn’t cut the transmission off. I am told that the reception should be degraded to port and starboard because of the loop giving
Best reception/ trans through the hole in the middle (ie fore/aft), keep in mind that comm. Signals are vertically polarized so if your antenna
Is laying flat on top of the panel the reception might be effected.
Good luck

Hi Michel,
I have Powerflarm Pcas mobile mounted on a RAM mount suction cup on the windscreen to the left near to the doorframe. The anntena can then stand vertical and work fine and is easy to see and use with no restriction on my view. Powerflarm give's me firm contacts with ADS-B and Flarm equipped(plus gliders) aircraft with 360 deg position and altitude . Mode C & S are given range and relative altitude to you.When powerflarm is linked to my Trig31 mode s transponder it will also give me ADS-B out.
Regards
Kevin.
