Default PowerFlarm and transponders while towing?

Not sure about PowerFlarm, but on EU Flarm the is an option to suppress
visual and audible warnings, but still Tx data.

Are you operating in 'Nearest' or 'Collision' mode?

Perhaps the answer is RTFM



No, PowerFlarm doesn't have a "collision" mode that is manually
switched. It does use logic to suppress non-collision likely gliders
that are sharing a thermal, but this is an automatic function. Also,
we are not yet dealing with PowerFlarm vs. PowerFlarm, and I've only
done ground tests with two portable units on a collision course in
golf carts :c) as in the US we are just starting to equip and there
are very few airborne PF's, except at contests.

My use of PF so far, is using only the PCAS functions (where the PF
displays only range and altitude of a Mode-C equipped threat
aircraft).

BTW, I did RTFM . . . several times, honest.
