The TAdvisor, and probably the OGN devices soon, are not worst than flarm
to
do this job.
Anyway, as a wise guy ("Buddy Bob") here stated, shortly we may have OGN
devices acting as collision avoidance systems.

OGN Trackers work on a different frequency, so will not interface to Flarm
or DSX.

At that point Flarm will change its protocol and adopt the open one.

Oh?

Even if Flarm did open their encoding, DSX is still not Flarm-compatible.
The do not have the predictive algorithm that Flarm does.

The differances are too great.

I fully agree with Bob, it is pointless to ask Flarm to open the protocol.

What we need is several other manufacturers selling their own devices,
based
on the OGN open software for example. I have not signed the petition for

this reason.

Are there any DSX devices in US? One might supose so judging by the number
of responses from US pilots, but I doubt it.
