Meeting to discuss FLARM in the USA

I'll be the first to admit that Xaon MRX would be useless if all
gliders had transponders. The designer was approached to see if an
intelligent muting alogorith could be added but he responded there was
insufficient processing power in that unit.

If gliders everywhere were assigned a separate code, like the 0440 in
Minden, it might be a much easier task. Nearby gliders would not
generate alerts, for example, while airplanes using the 1200 code would be.

So integrate the sniffer
with FLARM and provide intelligent muting of transponder alerts then
you would have a US market.

Yes! And if the logger were IGC approved, it would be an even bigger market.
