Default Flarm / Oudie issues

I had similar problems recently after installing the latest Flarm
update.Â* I eventually went back to the Flarm configuration tool and
redid my Flarm config file.Â* IIRC, I then had to make some manual
changes to the config file and, after reloading that, everything worked
again.Â* It was very tiresome!

Hi All
Just got back from 3 weeks of flying in Ephrata and Nephi.

I have random issues with Flarm targets not showing up on my Oudie.

After several years of perfect functionality, Its not working so well now


So this spring I updated my Flarm Firmware, My Flarm net data base and my Oudie to all the latest versions of software.

Flying this year, Often times targets would not show up even though they were 50' away on the ramp, while most targets that did show up came in at very long range, often 10 miles+ out. Sometimes not though and I'd lose targets at 2-3 miles. Or less. Very random performance.

I lost all the targets I.D. which I used to have.

Does anyone know where my problem lies?

In the latest Flarm update?

In the latest Oudie update?

Is it in the Flarmnet data base update?

I checked my Flarm performance in the range analyzer and It came in as very good.
Some others reported they could see my I.D. but not all.

All ADS-S targets came in OK
Any ideas from the Pro's out there?
Anyone experiencing these problems this season?
Where should I start?
Thanks in advance.
Nick
