No, pressing IDENT does NOT cause the transponder to transmit. It merely sets an attention flag for controllers (which highlights you on their display). If the controllers did not request an IDENT, they will not be amused. I'd be interested to know how pressing IDENT causes a flag to be set on the controller's display 100 miles away without any transmission from the transponder. Telepathy? GC Please do not do that... Thanks, Best Regards, Dave "YO electric"
