PowerFlarm v3.40

That's what I would hope. I recall that, when I installed my Mode S
transponder and had it tested, it was putting out over 175 watts to the test
equipment antenna. Don't we have an inverse cube function of power density
to distance? I think that's right, though I probably didn't say it
correctly. Anyway, an aircraft a couple of hundred feet away would be
received in the milliwatt range, maybe somewhat more, but certainly not at
100+ watts.

I am pretty sure that the suppression is based on power as well, in addition
to altitude. So only a strong signal at the same altitude will be
suppressed. Which mean you will still get warning for same altitude until
the other aircraft is very close, giving you enough warning. I assume this
is the same way that Zaon works. But again this is just my guess. Will be
nice if Flarm folks will comment on this.
