FYI for ADS-B users

FYI - Here's a heads-up in case you have an ADS-B receiver and feel like contributing to the Map Flights service. Even if you don’t have a receiver, the website’s display of planes overhead looks interesting.

Subject: A question from map.flights for the Issaquah ARC

 

Hello,

 

On your About Us page (https://www.w7bi.com/about-us) I read that the club has been supporting ham radio in the Issaquah and Sammamish area since 1978. I run map.flights, a free live flight map without ads that runs on its own network of receivers.

 

Does the club, or one of the members, run an ADS-B receiver on 1090 MHz? If it already feeds Flightradar24 or ADS-B Exchange, adding us takes a few minutes and nothing changes there: https://map.flights/en/pair

 

If a short mention ever fits in the club news or at a meeting, it would help us a lot. I'm writing to the general club address, so please pass this on to whoever looks after that.

 

Of course, if it's not something for you, no worries at all.

 

73,

Lubos Kovar

It did not show up as an iApp.  There is a web page but it seems pretty clunky.
