I wonder if the range analysis checks your tx or rx or both.
You might need other folks' logs to check the tx.

If so, then a test might be to just use port A on one antenna at a time..


An excellent tool for tx is https://ktrax.kisstech.ch/flarm-liverange/ . Insert your ICAO ID and you get a plot of db received vs range in km, and a plan chart. You do need to be in range of an OGN receiver. If you don't have a receive, here's an ICAO ID for one of our club gliders you can use (good for about a week): C059F6

Details on the Open Glider Network at http://wiki.glidernet.org/


Here's a better one that got further away from the receivers: C053F2
