If this isnt stating the obvious, why not simply propose 'contest mode' (replacing stealth mode) which suppresses ID and climb rate, everything else full range, and have done with it?

Stealth mode connotations go away. Awareness is maintained. Electronic leeching reduced..Contest folks hopefully happy (is that possible?)

Work with BGA folks with coordinated approach to the FLARM chappies - will still take a while to work out I'm sure.

Any takers?

The most useful is still "where are the guys that are out front?"
Example Mifflin 3 or 4 years ago- Do I cross the Stone Valley or do I go to Mill Creek? The guys with the good Flarm knew to go to Mill Creek.
Based on what we know from Russell, expect somewhat larger range, and naming something like "competition mode" or such.
The Brits very much wish to know our thinking.
