Default PowerFLARM Core secondary FLARM antenna

Op maandag 29 september 2014 19:41:45 UTC+2 schreef :

'CORE has two separate FLARM radio transceivers FLARM A and FLARM B. FLARM A is used to receive and transmit and must always be connected to an antenna. FLARM B is only used to receive, an optional antenna may be used for better reception performance. Usage of FLARM B requires purchase of the respective feature licence.'
Feature licence? Turns out it's a 44EUR charge http://www.air-avionics.com/support/...rflarm_lic.pdf to enable this feature. My understanding is that this fee is just a software activation; the hardware (antenna and cables) seems to be extra.

I agree that it is ridiculous to charge extra money for the license that activates the second Flarm RF antenna (reception only).
Flarm has primarily been designed to enhance flight safety, so you should not have to pay extra for a second antenna.
