My "own transponder" functionality works just fine and I never get a self

I'm not sure what it's doing early in the flight - pressing the right switch
to the left, it shows a transponder code of 4707 (IIRC) and, shortly later,
it shows 1202, my squawk. It's fine after that.

PCAS issues are still not resolved if you fly with a transponder. The fix
for continous "own ship" alerting appears to have been to inhibit reporting
of co-altitude targets. My portable still does not perform the function it
was purchased for (traffic awareness and collision warning for my airplane).
I hope the "other issues" the FLARM team are working on include making PCAS
work. That functionality is long overdue.

I used to notice the same with my MRX. When you fly close to another aircraft it will throw off both the squawk code and altitude for a while, until it eventually correct itself, or if you recycle the power. The same (for altitude) does not happen with PF PCAS.
