Data block

[gmko...@aim.com]

I've noticed lately that my aircraft icon has a data block above it with

W000@0/t0.  what info is it, and can it be turned off?

Thank you,

Gary

picture would be helpful, if I'm correct, what I think you are seeing is the TIS-B data being sent from the ground station for your aircraft.

You must ADS-B out equipped, you can't do anything about it if you are not...

If you are using a StratuX unit, go to the settings screen of your Stratux and enter your "Ownship" information which is the mode S code for your aircraft in hex format.
If you are using a SDR with an OTG cable directly on your tablet then go to the settings page in Avare, Menu -> Preferences -> Pilot and Aircraft, about 1/3 down the page set your "aircraft ICAO Code" which  is your S-Code for your aircraft in Hex format.

Any other ADS-B in device I'm unfamiliar with and can't help you.

Jeff

W from North at 0 knots and true airspeed is 0.

I think that Rich K nailed it. I had the same thing when testing on the ground with a Stratux connected. When I went to Menu | Preferences | Instrumentation | Distance Ring Style and set that to "None" (was Glide Range) the w000@0 information disappeared.
