Default Flarm and stealth

Clarification for US pilots: "Stealth mode" means other people can't
see you from a great distance, nor see your climb rate, on devices
attached to flarm. In return, you can't see them or their climb rates
either; they only show up when they pose a collision threat. If you
select "stealth mode" this is reflected in the flarm IGC file, so
scorers can verify the setting.

But I'm hoping for more actual experience from Europe than theoretical
opinions from the US!

Keep in mind that Powerflarm is said to have longer range than
Flarm.
