I just saw a few network hits from the Calgary area. One acft (a Westjet flight, 103 I think) was directly on the rwy 28 heading after departure, and another aircraft on the middle leg of an international flight appeared to be on the downwind leg for an approach to 34. Even though I have moved my setup 2 stories higher (but still with the antenna inside the house), I still can't receive actual traffic from CYYC. Is the new contestant on here somewhere?

Here's an unusual one - returns at the moment from deep inside Iran - the Payam area (OIIP)

Returns from Muscat are coming in - I've never noticed them before.

Widespread returns are coming in from "central" Russia at the moment - a rather empty area, but roughly around UNEE - very interesting.

Rod that is pretty cool. Glad that part of the world has some coverage now. Always good for me to monitor the Japan flights

First time I have noticed it, there are returns coming in from Beijing

[RodBearden]

Yes - we used to get regular returns from Beijing, and the Shanghai area used to be good too, along with mainland China near Hong Kong. At the time, AirNav said that sales in China were going well, but it's all gone very quiet recently.

Let's hope this is the start of a reappearance of China in RadarBox - they've certainly got enough ADS-B aircraft to keep us happy. I hope the RadarBox users aren't being blocked by the Great Firewall of China!

Hi Graham and welcome to the forum.

Assuming you're getting any returns at all from the network, there's probably nothing that you're doing wrong - we just don't often get good returns from Florida. We used to get good info from the Orlando area, and often from around Tampa - occasionally very good returns from Miami.

But it all seems a bit patchy round there these days.

Reports coming in from the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico centred around Cancun.

Hi Rod

Back In June/July it was myself sending Info From Manila I travel around that area of the world quite a bit(family working there) so will always try and use the box as much as possible.

Hi Stu and welcome - sorry for the delay - been at Oshkosh!

It;'s always good to get returns from the more unusual (for RadarBox) parts of the world - so looking forward to more from you!
