Don't think we have anybody in SA at the moment so you would be a pioneer if you setup one in SA :)

Not been to SA since I've had my RB but took my SBS a few times. Around JNB,most of the ZS- registered stuff will only appear on the list not the map. Those that plot position are the SAA A319s and longhaul Airbuses plus I think a few of the newer B738's.
Then you have the Intl traffic with full ADS-B plus from memory a couple of Beech Kingairs.
I get to JNB Thursday am for a couple of nights and if the hotel has internet,will get the RB linked up to the network.
Enjoy your new toy when it arrives

Hi Marcel. Hope you enjoy it and have it on 24/day.

Outside Europe (where only Spain remains to be covered) and USA we have now users in Taiwan, Brazil, Australia, Japan. would be great to see a station in Dubai/Abu Dhabi/Kuwait. Where are the middle east guys?

Marc,

If you have "Download Aircraft Photo" and "Download 2 Photos for each aircraft" ticked in Preferences/RadarBox, then the database will be automatically updated if you are on line. (Bug in V1.3 means that you have to have 2 photo download selected for the updates to work)

V1.4 which should be along sometime soon will have a different database system which will allow easy manual updates.

Enjoy your RB, are you getting many contacts - I'm away from Network data at the moment so I can't see if you are sharing data for SA.
