The rebroadcast of Flarm-derived information on the Pilot aware frequency/protocol “does not work” as there is no ground station capable of doing it.

That is astonishing… the system is promoted very hard by many pilots.
I wonder if @pilotaware is still around?
The rebroadcast of Flarm information is based on volunteers up-dating their OGN receiver to be able to retransmit on the PilotAware frequency/protocol.
PilotAware being British they have concentrated their communication, effort and money in getting OGN receiver in the UK updated first.
Nothing astonishing.
Indeed, but as this thread shows, not all purchasers are aware of it.

Ok sorry, I didn’t realise that PilotAware couldn’t recieve FLARM signals directly.
We are most definitely updating stations in Europe, but cannot do this alone, and as was mentioned – need help
We will provide what hardware and software we have free of charge, but need help from installers
There is a growing network now in Germany

The real benefit, is that we are also trialling the uplink of ModeS data – we call this Mode-S/3D, there is a description here

Anyone wishing to install a new OGN-R or upgrade an existing OGN please contact us on

Bump.
@pilotaware, how is the coverage over mainland Europe nowadays ?
