Default PowerFLARM Brick ADS-B antenna source?

Hi John,

The first batch of PowerFLARM Portable units were shipped with a free remote
"FLARM B" antenna. Since then all PowerFLARM Brick and Portable units have
been supplied with only the single "FLARM A" antenna and a single ADS-B
antenna. The 2nd antenna is extra.

The good news is that an extra FLARM antenna is not very expensive. I have
them in stock for $20. They are supplied with a cable that is 6.5" long. I
also sell cable extensions.

Best Regards,

Hi John,



Good question. In a day or 2 I will have extra PowerFLARM remote antennas

in stock. They are the same as supplied with the PowerFLARM Brick. I

imagine that one could be mounted in the wheel well. I agree that it
would

help improve safety. Once the logger features are working we will be able

to analyze the range in all directions.

Paul:
Actually I have a brick, but it didn't come with any extra antennas (only
two dipoles). Is it supposed to come with an additional antenna, or do us
brick guys need to order that separately?
Thanks
John
