Title: Rsdarbox Repair - Info Needed
Post by: CZUL on July 10, 2010, 08:42:41 PM
My RB died this week, it no longer receives any flights off the antenna. How do I go about getting this repaired? What is the turn around time?

Thanks

Recent forum posts have suggested that the turnround time is pretty short.

It is worth checking the antenna and cable carefully.  I have seen a couple of "dead" ANRBs where the only problem was a damaged antenna cable.

I have a loose connection where the cable connects to the bottom of the antenna.

This can give the impression of a dead ANRB, but quick wiggle, and comes to life

Is there anywhere you can purchase a replacement btw (one that comes with the box)

I've tested the RB with an external and back of the set antenna. I live very close to the airport. ADS-B equipped aircraft on approach do not show up as they used to. My SBS-1 running off the same antenna on the roof is showing traffic up to 150nm away.
