    From: "Lawson, Michael" <mikel@ssd.fsi.com>
    --> Avionics-List message posted by: "Lawson, Michael" <mikel@ssd.fsi.com> I was excited to read about Garmin's GDL-90 Universal Access Transceiver (UAT) for ADS-B traffic and FIS-B (free) uplink weather. I find it affordable for the amount of lifesaving data available through it. However, I was not so impressed that I had to hook it up to an MX-20 in order to display anything. (Too expensive.) Has anyone done any work (or would like to) regarding getting traffic and weather data out of the GDL-90 and into something like an iPaq or PC? I know I can buy a Mode S transponder that will receive TIS, but it will neither be able to transmit ADS-B position reports, nor will not be able to receive FIS-B weather updates. The GDL-90 UAT is a much better overall solution, if someone could get the data out into some standard format. Mike Lawson RV-8A/fuselage in progress

    --> Avionics-List message posted by: "Tom Brusehaver" <cozytom@mn.rr.com> I was part of a conversation yesterday, where an FCC vendor thought CAT-62 was not network centric. Stupid technical choice and all. Europe is gonna have a better ATC system than the US in the next couple years! Anyhow, here is one document that talks about the mix ADS-B TIS-B conflict alerts, and everything. Using CAT-62, the TIS-B message is built. http://www.nextor.org/pubs2/Symposium03/ European-Medium-Term-Conf.pdf here is a similar document: www.terma.com/multimedia/TIS-B_Application_Note.pdf And then the ICAO study, starts at: http://www.icao.int/icao/en/ro/apac/adsb_2003/wp19.pdf Talking about VDL mode 4 and UAT's Digging in on google the details can be found out about.
