I still get the dots, but after a while I get loads of dots - especially in the holds :-)

Although the dots only get painted every 30 seconds, then don't all get painted in the same place. I'll do a screen shot.

Not brilliant shots, but you get the idea. I'll be the first to admit that it would be nice if RB could "join the dots" :-)

OK Pagy,

Here you go. This is just over one hour of traffic around London Heathrow EGLL. I'm only using the standard RB antenna on the ground floor window ledge, so my coverage isn't brilliant at this location. You should be able to see the flow of traffic though. File is approx 3.5mb.

Right click on the file below and choose "Save as"

Out of interest, I find that if I set the trail time-out to maximum (10000 seconds) then I can still see the flow of traffic with the 30 second update rate of Network traffic.

I don't know why, I tried to download that file and it has only 205 kB, approx 3mins of traffic. But your coverage is very good, you are lucky man :-) Thanks

Must be a problem with the Free website.

Thanks for your interest, any recordings appreciated. I am looking especially for sequencing planes on final.

OK - here, as promised, is a link to a RadarBox-format log file with about 160 minutes' worth of LHR arrivals and departures from yesterday 22nd June (210 flights in total):

Enjoy !

Thanks for the upload Dave. For those of us living in a low-density traffic area, it's interesting to see Radabox processing a high-density area like London in real-time (rather than 30s steps).

Both files amazing, thank you guys. Nice stream of heavies, could watch for hours.

Have you had chance to look at the files from Dave. Noticed that quite a few are landing in the hotel car parks. ;-)

Pagy · June 23, 2009, 07:00:31 PM

yes, I have noticed that. no idea why it is but I have seen it many times.
couldn't be a problem of the device on board?

Thanks for the recordings; very interesting to watch the action at EGLL.

I'm looking forward to my stay London in July; I'll try to get to Hatton Cross Tube Station for the spotting place 27L.

Cheers, Gerald

Let me guess - 737 Classics and BAW 767s ?

malc41 · June 24, 2009, 08:27:26 AM

Exactly, G-BNWD was one. Surprise, surprise!!

Pagy · July 07, 2009, 09:32:29 PM
