What is it that's being decommissioned? Is it the mode-S (which TIS-B
doesn't use) transmitters? ...or is the data being cut off at the source?


Details are sketchy, but apparently it's just the TIS transmitters.

I imagine the backend gear that generates the data from the radar
equipment will likely remain and serve as the feed for TIS-B, but don't
quote me on that.
