The day everyone has been waiting for has arrived.
Welcome to the most advanced ADS-B flight tracking application ever developed, AirNav RadarBox 2009 (also known as version 2.0). This is a major release meaning lots of features were added.
This upgrade is free to all existing users.
Despite the enormous success of the AirNav RadarBox ADS-B receiver that now entirely dominates this market, AirNav Systems never stopped the development: at AirNav Systems work will never stop.
Upgrade Download Link (for users with version 1.5):
http://www.airnavsystems.com/download/anrb/anrbupgrade15to20.exe
(it will copy to your existing RB2008 folder all relevant files)
Full Version Download Link:

Screen Shot (including a background NASA generated satellite photo of the UK):
(http://www.airnavsystems.com/images/anrb/RB2009-Shot1.jpg)
New Features:
- Track flight over NASA Satellite Layers - all the world covered;
- Automatic download of flight origin/departure information based on callsign;
- Screen Shot FTP Auto Upload - share received views automatically;
- New fields in MyLog tables (ADS-B, first/last position, altitude, ground speed);
- Flight Tour Feature - scroll over all tracked flights automatically;
- Network flights now with squawk information;
- Silhouettes drawn for each aircraft received;
- Major airport outlines by default - track flights on airport taxiways;
- Callsign/Route appear on MyLog Reports;
- MyLog by default orders by last time on both aircraft/flights table;
- MyLog new search options;
- MyLog refresh shortcut (F5)
- Optimization of MyLog feature to enabled millions of flight entries without affecting application performance;
- Over 1400 airline Logos included by default;
- Over 400 civilian/military flags included by default;
Corrections:
- Distance and Bearing automatically updated (not only on mouse move);
- Grid Column order correctly displayed for all numeric fields;
- Problems when application minimized corrected;
- Application 100% fast and stable and robust on simpler computers (average 65 Mbytes of memory used only);
We want to be an open minded company, happy to receive and implement user suggestions and always looking for improvements.
The degree of confidence and daily user interaction shown by more than 1000 AirNav Systems forum users shows it all.
Our forum is the place where our developers talk directly to the customers getting ideas and motivation for improvements.
A special thank you to all the users suggestions and to the team that helped us finishing this new version.
-
Congratulation on a great new version. Some great new features!
Quick question. Is this release identical to the final beta released late last night? Will save me downloading/installing again. Thanks.
-
Download the latest one Tarbat, minor changes but its important you are on the latest version.
-
As our support wrote answer is yes. We have made some changes after that (fine tuning).
We would highly suggest you to install the files announced on this post.
-
Well done to AirNav!
Especially as the changes are from user requests.
This proves that AirNav is a company willing to listen to its customers and act upon what it hears.
Three cheers to all those involved.
-
Having had a quick play, it looks very good. One disappointment (for me, anyway) is the number of flights which still don't show departure/destination airfields. I was under the impression that access to new databases would resolve this in the new version. I notice that this is always the case with alphanumeric callsigns (eg: EZY236W), and often the case with straight numeric callsigns (eg: RYR6426). On balance, I would suggest that there is no discernible difference in this area between this and the last versions.
When you (AirNav) outlined the improvements in this area in a number of threads, I made a point of asking whether the improvements would also reflect in alphanumeric callsigns, but never had a specific answer.
I don't mean to nit-pick, as a lot of work has obviously gone into the new version, but this was an area of particular interest to me.
Also, how do I download a satellite image for France? There doesn't seem to be one available.
Otherwise, thanks for all your efforts.
DC
-
Regarding the satellite images: all the world is covered. Just go to the maps menu, satellite layer, download.
Regarding alphanumeric flight numbers: do you have a list with that information? Currently that information is not available in real-time outside EuroControl servers (with flight plan data). If you have such a list we would import it to our servers immediately.
-
Deadcalm,
If you are not seeing routes for "normall" Flight IDs then its simply because our database does not have every single route. You should be able to check your route database and see that its being updated. However as Development says EuroControl is the only one with this data and they won't release it. We are doing the best we can.
Regarding alphanumeric flight numbers, these cause a great of deal of issue as they do not match the offical flight plan data we might have and also there isn't a set rule in how to go from to another. We can look into this for future versions however the software already provides a great leap.
-
Good job airnav. Question: What is "Start Tour"???
-
As from above :)
Flight Tour Feature - scroll over all tracked flights automatically;
-
Having had a quick play, it looks very good. One disappointment (for me, anyway) is the number of flights which still don't show departure/destination airfields.
If you look at the routes table in Database Explorer, you can see the new routes marked in the CH column by the date that they were autopopulated.

Have just downloaded the upgrade. Everything seems to be working Ok other than my Network flights show not connected, is this a system problem or my set?
-
Network is fine here, as its a new version you may need to give permissions again via your firewall for it.
-
Also, how do I download a satellite image for France? There doesn't seem to be one available.
- Set up your ordinary map view of the bit of France that you want
- Click the new Satellite button on the toolbar (yellow satellite on a black background)
- Rather than accepting the name offered, type in Central France or whatever you like
- Click Save
- Your new map is now available in the Satellite drop-down list.
Also, a top-tip for clearing the satellite map:
- Scroll the map to a random bit of sea that you are never going to want to watch
- Zoom in to the maximum close up possible
- Click the yellow Satellite button
- Replace the offered name with Clear Layer or something like that (if you want this "map" to appear at the top of the list, you can save it as _Clear Layer)
- Click the Save Button
- Clear Layer appears in your satellite drop-down list
- To get rid of a displayed satellite map, just use the Clear Layer map, which loads a very small satellite layer in the middle of nowhere :-)
-
OK, thanks, Airnav & Allocator. I wasn't having a go, but I was probably a little unsure about what to expect regarding the routes - which is why I wanted to get some factual feedback before the new version was released.
As far as the satellite download is concerned, I think I've sussed it - I was expecting France to be in the list! Got it now, thanks.

-

As you are using a new RadarBox exe file, you have to allow it to connect through your firewall. I use ZoneAlarm and just click the "Allow always" warning that comes up the first time you run the new exe.

No problem DC :-)
Those alpha numeric callsign/route tie-ups are a pain in the **** and that's for sure!
-
FD6 can do alphanumeric callsigns okay ;)

A silly question, but is this as simple as stripping off the last character if it's a letter rather than a number - or is it more complicated than that?
-
A quick demo of the FTP upload in action.
http://www.ruyton.demon.co.uk/html/radarbox.html
This facility is great for showing a friend just what Radarbox can do, as you can position the map anywhere to show traffic for that location - just remember that any changes you make to the map on your screen takes 5 minutes until it's uploaded. A simple bit of html code refreshes the page every 60 seconds.
-

I'm not sure. I don't know how FD6 works internally. Just putting BMA67G into the Flight Identifier field at http://www.flytecomm.com/cgi-bin/trackflight works. I've got FD6 configured to use Flytecom first. Just putting BMA67 in doesn't work, so you can't just strip off the last character.
Attached are the routes FD6 has successfully looked-up over the last couple of weeks:
-
Sometime it is other times there is more than one letter in the Flight ID and to make it worse sometimes what might be BMA67G is in the flight plan database as BMA679.
Anyhow the SQL database is there for intelligent guys and gals to create something to catch these ones. Otherwise the Route updatings works brilliant.
-
Since the new version 2.0, my computer crashes when I'm running Airnav Radarbox. I use Windows Vista......
Further, the program is not faster than the previous version on my other pc, who is quite some ears older (Windows XP).
So my first impression is that version 2.0 is NOT fast and stable........
-
Can you send us more details such as machine specs, when it crashes etc..? It was thoroughly tested by us and beta testers on this forum. Also we see its being used by 50+ for the last few hours users and you are the first to mention this.
So we expect something else is causing your issue.
-
As from above :)
Flight Tour Feature - scroll over all tracked flights automatically;
I still dont get it.
Anyway, how long is the FTP screenshot upload interval?
-
Is it just me or is anyone else having problems with MyLog?
When I open it the list is blank and even the Quick Filter Box is empty, no drop down options?
-

Working okay here:

That probably doesn't help solve your problem though. Sorry. Maybe try restarting ANRB.
-
Dave R.
I was about to ask the same question, have rcvd nothing in my log since the upgrade and my reporter stopped recording as well, have only got data up to midday today when i switched it off until the upgrade. at least my network is working again.
-

The computer gives a blue screen and thereafter it starts up again.
Here I give you the failure details from windows:
Name of problem: BlueScreen
Files who helps to descibe the problem:
Mini080908-01.dmp
sysdata.xml
Version.txt
So mayby, you have some information to help me.
-
Hmmm,
I'm now trying brute ignorance and a little bit of force. I've uninstalled and will do a full reinstall and see what happens!
-
Your MyLog data will be empty if you installed Version 2 without doing the upgrade. Once it picks up things they are added to the filters, the filters only work on items which are actually there.
Racinghenk contact support directly. A blue screen error either means driver fault (unlikey if you have the latest version) or something else in your machine. The software itself if it gets into a tangle should not cause a restart.
-
I did the upgrade, data was still in the database explorer however not in MyLog.
After uninstall and reinstall the MyLog feature works, but obviously no data. I copied the datafile previous to reinstalling, any easy way to reinstate it?
-
Is it just me or is anyone else having problems with MyLog?
When I open it the list is blank and even the Quick Filter Box is empty, no drop down options?
All OK here, 338 aircraft received today - about 2 hours worth of receiving. If you click "Show All" do you get any aurcraft in the MyLog list. My Quick Filters are fine too.
Although I've been beta testing RB2009, I did backup the beta version and did a complete new install using the link at the top of this thread. I did however copy my old MyLog.db3 and NavData.db3 files across to the \Data directory so that I've got data from before today.

Beware that you can't just copy a v1.5 database to use in v2.0. There are new fields added. During beta testing I did develop some SQL code to add the new fields, but that's a high risk solution!!
-
Just heard word from Development that in fact you can do that. RadarBox 2009 will recognise the old format and add the new columns to it :)
-
Bad news is it didn't! Wonder if my data file is corrupted somehow that 2008 could live with but not 2009.
Still gives me an excuse to leave RadarBox running!
-

Could be!
I'm also having some strange issues having gone the upgrade route. My silhouettes are only showing for aircraft with a short name starting A, the airline logos are also only showing where the callsign starts A and almost no flight routes are showing. All the 'missing' items are in the correct folder or in the case of the flight numbers do exist in my routes table although it's interesting to note that my routes table has not added the new column needed for the 'date added' information.
-
Try a clean install or try the upgrade once more.
-
Updated to RB2009 a few hours and it's running flawlessly. Thank you to AirNav Systems for listening to users and continuing to improve on an already fantastic piece of decoding kit.
-
Downloaded the new version this afternoon. All running hot straight and normal.
Also I have just purchased a new 24" monitor. Fantastic!
Now I can have my list on the left side of the screen and the radar on the right in good size.
Excellent.

How familiar are you with html code?
I've created a page on my web server and I load the FTP jpg picture to it. I'm assuming that you have the web hosting address and passwords entered in the RB Preferences menu? Don't forget to set the correct folder structure too in the Preferences section.
This is the code that causes the page to refresh every 60 seconds:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="60; URL=http://www.ruyton.demon.co.uk/html/radarbox.html">
And this is the code that shows the picture:
<td width="633" class="TextObject">
<p style="text-align: center;">AirNav Systems Live RadarBox Screenshot - Automatically refreshed every 60 seconds</p>

Please note also the screenshot is 5 minutes delayed, so it will appear 5 mins after you start the upload incase you have entered the details and wondering why it has not uploaded yet.
-
hi,
i know about 5 minutes delay, but my problem is configure in RB preferences.
Look: http://www.pgavirtual.com/RB/radarbox.htm (http://www.pgavirtual.com/RB/radarbox.htm)

I assume you know your FTP settings. This feature is really for advanced users so just checking whether you know certain items.
If so, then the only issue is getting the root path correct
e.g /public_html/RB/ will get into a folder on FTP rather than what you may seem on the domain.com/RB/
You can find out the exact path from your website host.
-
I will try with /public_html/RB/.
Thx.
I will advise you the results.
-
You need to find out your one, that was just an example.
-
Downloaded the upgrade - very impressed - and have not encountered any of the 'problems' mentioned previously.
But I have come across a different one. Callsigns and routes are not appearing in MyLog.
Any ideas why?

Hawkeye
-
Can you confirm you see the Flight tab and it has details but no columns for Callsigns and Routes?
-
I will try with /public_html/RB/.
Thx.

Miguel,
If you have an FTP program, you can FTP to your web hosting domain and actually see the file structure. I use WSFTP Pro.
For example, the web page with my RB picture is:
http://www.ruyton.demon.co.uk/html/airnav_radarbox.html
but I save the picture into this directory on the server:
/docroot/radarbox/
This is because my web host has told me to put all my files in the /docroot directory, just like the example Support was talking about /public_html/
-

You will only get a route if that aircraft was displaying a callsign when you detected it live. To demonstrate this, click on the first aircraft in MyLog (top half of the window) and watch what happens in the bottom half of the window.
Press the cursor down key to go through all the records one by one. Sooner or later you will see callsigns and routes appearing in the bottom window.
-
i will stop now with this.
I have some problems.
The company flags dont appear, my log is empty, in grids nothing, in reporter nothing.
I have flights, but continues empty.
-
There are no columns for Callsigns and Routes in the Mylog panel.
Columns from left to right are:-
ModeS, Registration, A/C type, A/CName, ModeS Country, airline, ADSB First Time, Last Time and Comments.
-

To do a complete new install, I renamed my old RadarBox directory, then I installed using the full install file at the start of this thread.
I suggest you do the same. You will still have all your old files. Try a new full install to get a working version of RadarBox, then we can talk about trnasferring your old database maybe.

And in the bottom half of the MyLog window under "Flights for Selected Aircraft"?
Callsign - Route - MsgCount - StartTime etc

-

Did you do a full install Steve, or an upgrade?
Just confirm that you have aircraft in the MyFlights list as well as the Network list?
-
We are happy to announce that we have just finished a change in our flight data server to enable alphanumerical callsigns to be properly decoded. So from now on callsigns like EZY67HP will have their origin/destination retrieved from our server.
-
Me too, no flights in my log, or reporter, no flags company.
I have make the both things, update and full version.
But problem is the same.
I have flight in radar, but dont keep in my log.
I dont know why.
-
Looks like your upgrade did not go correctly. Uninstall RadarBox 2009 (go into the directory as well and delete any files remaining) and then install the full version and run that and confirm to us whether that works ok.

Miguel,
I still think that this is an install problem - are you using Vista?
To have no flags, you are either missing the \Data\Flags directory, or you are missing the D008.dat file in \Data
Also in \Data is your MyLog.db3 file - this is where all your live flights are recorded.
Can you see the aircraft registrations, airline logos and the new silhouettes?
Confirm that you have aircraft showing in your MyFlights aircraft list?
-

I use XP. I see all in MYflights.
The rest dont work(no flights in my log, or reporter) , im go uninstall and install again.
Thx.
-
I have upgraded from 1.5 to the latest version, however on the My flights box I am constantly getting a yellow box showing 'Hardware:Checking'. I have the process hardware flights box ticked. Nothing showing up on the screen.
Any ideas or pointers?
-
Restart your pc and unplug and replug the RadarBox.

Have you plugged your RadarBox receiver into a different USB port?
Is the USB cable connected correctly?
What lights have you got showing on the hardware receiver?
-
Okay, have managed to sort most of the issues with flags, logos, silhouettes and routes not showing - appears there was a memory issue my end. A good old fashioned reboot fixed everything except the country flags which still don't show in my updated version. In the full install version everything seems fine so it looks like I'll be sticking to that and porting across my database changes.
One question I do have. It appears that route information only gets updated for MyFlights and not Network traffic (when clicked on). Is this correct?
-
Tried the restart and unplug route - no change.
The only light on the RB is the green one. All cables correct and present in the same ports etc.
Also no network traffic being downloaded? Baffled and feel a clean install coming on!
-
Bob - I had exactly the same problem, and solved it when I found that Mylog.db3 had somehow got into the wrong folder - moved it into the Data folder, and everything was fine. This may be your problem.
Rod
-
I will have a look and see if I can locate it and come straight back.
-
Nope its in there already
-
Bob - have a look and see if there's another one in a higher level folder such as C:\Program Files\AirNav Systems\AirNav RadarBox 2008
You may want to do a security copy first!
If there is, try copying it into Data
Rod
-
Nope its in there already
Just check the size of that MyLog.db3 file. As a test I renamed mine and ran RB. Result was no aircraft at all and yellow "not connected" lights for Hardware and Radarbox. However RB had created a new "dummy" MyLog.db3 which was a file in name only, no database structure.
So, you do need either the new db3 file that comes with the full installation, or your old db3 file from your previous instalation.
-
Nope no joy folks. Tried a full clean install in a different folder with no luck and all the same symptoms as listed above. Think I will have a look in the morning with fresh eyes.... any thoughts in the meantime welcomed!!
-
Check your 2009 directory rather than your 2008 one.
Also some customers have experience slow loading with RadarBox 2009 when they have AVG8.0 installed. Enter a exception for the folder for RadarBox 2009 and it should run quickly.
-
I had same problem of My Log and Reporter going blank on the upgrade from 1.5 to 2.0 and Alert alarm also quit working.
So I uninstalled 2008 and reinstalled full 2.0 2009 and is working on Vista now but lost all my data that I manually added over past couple weeks.
I made duplicate files of 2008 Airnav.dat and Airnav.bak files but can't seem to get them to work in new 2009 file.
Guess I lost all that data for good.
Make copies of all your data before reinstallingI guess is the lesson.
-
Now my Log and Reporter still not working..Any Ideas?
Can I please go back to 1.5 and retry?At least that was working well.
Alert alarm works ok though.
A disaster 2.0 upgrade here!

Hi all from a cold Sydney
Downloaded v2.0 to my PC (XP)
quick switch of RadarBox from my Laptop to check it out.
Thank you for adding Flight No.,routing, and Local Time to Reporter but a few problems:
Not reporting correct flight details e.g.:
VH-OJO operated QF127 Syd-Hkg
reporter shows QF1 which is SYD-BKK-LHR
route shownon reported is FAJS-YSSY.
Checked a few domestic flights same problem.
MyLog shows correct flight info.
Also tried ACARS which works fine except does not pick up Aircraft type.
(Don't normally worry about this feature)
My database and Mylog were intact from the last time I used the PC as I always run RadarBox on my Laptop.
Peter, Sydney
-
Things are now getting stranger, did a full uninstall, deleted all files and then a full install of 2009 yesterday and MyLog seemed to be populating and thought all was well. This morning no data in MyLog, it was there there yesterday - I checked after the reinstall that flights were populating.
I'm using Vista - is this a common thread with all those with problems?
I've also disabled the local time option to see if this has any effect
-
I'm using Vista - is this a common thread with all those with problems?
If it helps, I'm on Vista and have had no such problems at all throughout the beta testing. Although I don't install in the default location. To avoid Virtual Store confusion, I install in:
P:\AirNav Systems\AirNav RadarBox 2009.
I wonder if there's some problem associated with the Virtual Store. Remember that anything ANRB tries to update in the installation directory will probably get placed in Vista's Virtual Store:
C:\Users\xxxxxxxx\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\AirNav Systems\AirNav RadarBox 2009.
That may not be the cause of these problems, but might be worth investigating.
-
Now I've had the chance to have a play, I have to say that the interface (for me) is just as slow and clunky as it's always been. Menus are sluggish, windows take ages to open.
Also, when I open the MyFlights window, most of the window is blank. There are the beginnings of lines down the left hand side of the window, which looks like the beginning of the "Bearing" column, but nothing else - the MyFlights total is currently 91, but I can't see 'em! If I click on where the line should be, there is a summary of the aircraft details in the bottom pane.

DC,
What columns have you got selected to show in Preferences?
If I untick everything except Brg - I get exactly the same as you :-)

Dave, what happens if you click the "Show All" button in the MyLog interface?
What happens if you click Filter, then click Show All? Even if the flights wern't showing as "Today", then the Show all should bring them up.
-
Just an update from us as some customers have asked how Version 2 has been received:
- 60%+ of customers using the network are now using Version 2
- Getting great feedback on the new features and fixes
- No major bugs have been found so far
- A few customers have had issues with the upgrade regarding coruppted data files (in that case install a fresh version 2 and delete the 2009 folder prior to installing)
Keep passing your feedback.
-
I am new to the Radarbox and was just getting my head around 1.5. I have upgraded to V2 and had a few problems but am fully back up and working after a full re-install. I have got to say i am amazed by the product and the support provided by the developers. I must also say it is so refreshing to come to an online forum that is so supportive and helpful - keep up the good work everyone. I am really looking forward to learning the ins and outs of this great product.
-
All sorted now. Thanks for all the pointers folks.
-
Welcome, GM21 - glad you're coping! We're all on a steep learning curve at the moment.
As you say Dev and Support are doing a great job - now is the time to come up with suggestions, and Development are saying that 2.1 is only a few weeks away, and they want even more ideas!
Rod :-)
-
We are really happy to see the great feedback we are having after V2.0 release
Most of the new features were requested and suggested by users. Like we always say we are here to implement them and we are a company devoted to having our customers happy. We have more than 100 features noted here for future versions: anyway keep your suggestions coming as you know that sooner or later they will be implemented.
Spread the word about RadarBox and we will have more and more customers covering all the world's most important places on our network.

Hi
Just intalled RB2009 using the upgrade link and initially had the my flights grid showing and populated but the map itself was completely blank. Re-booted and have now got the my flights list and aircraft appearing on the map but not a single one of the aircraft on there are showing any route information at all.
Am also waiting an ecxessive amount of time for the application to load but reading this thread that seems o imply that AVG might me an issue with this. The remedy for this is to enter an exception of RB2009 but to be honest I don't know what you mean or how to do this.
Incidentally I don't have a RadarBox2009 directory structure either after the download.
Clearly I have done something wrong - can anyone enlighten me ?
Thanks
Wayne
-
Wayne,
Uninstall and Install the full RadarBox 2009 not the upgrade.
Then go to AVG -> Tools -> Settings -> Exceptions -> Add path and enter the path to the AirNav Systems directory which should be in My computer, C Drive, Program Files, AirNav Systems.
Then run RadarBox 2009.
Hope that helps.
-
Thanks
Would that be to uninstall the RadarBox2008 directory (as I don't have a 2009 one) and then do the full install ?
-
If you don't have a 2009 directory then just install the full version.
-
Things are now getting stranger, did a full uninstall, deleted all files and then a full install of 2009 yesterday and MyLog seemed to be populating and thought all was well. This morning no data in MyLog, it was there there yesterday - I checked after the reinstall that flights were populating.
I'm using Vista - is this a common thread with all those with problems?
I've also disabled the local time option to see if this has any effect
Dave, what happens if you click the "Show All" button in the MyLog interface?
What happens if you click Filter, then click Show All? Even if the flights wern't showing as "Today", then the Show all should bring them up.
That was the first thing I tried and absolutely nothing!
-
Hello again
Done all that and it works a treat and many thanks Support for the quick and helpful advice. Installed full version ok, routes and company logos appearing and AVG exception set up so it boots at the usual speed. Glad you're around !
Thanks again
Wayne
-
Guys,
i continue without Mylog and Report information, still empty.
I have install again full version and still empty.
Any idea?
I use XP.
Thx.
-
Did you clear out any old data files in the 2009 directory. What's probably happened is when you tried the upgrade it corrupted some data files.
So best to clean them and then start a fresh.
-
Hi support, i have erased all files.
Only i have dont erased RB2008 files.
-
Is there a way of changing the order in which the columns appear in the main window? At the moment I only have Mode S, flight ID, registration, aircraft type and altitude turned on so as not to keep scrolling across the screen. If I turn on some of the new features ie routes etc it pushes altitude off the visible screen and altitude is a key sign of something which may or may not be heading to my local.
Menu's are still very slow to load though. CPU usage still varies from 30 to 100% but I am on the network at the moment so that may be having an effect.
Minimising and restoring seems to work ok
-
Paulc,
You can't change the order. I think you may have mentioned in past posts that your laptop is not that new. Its likely there are other apps running in the task bar near the clock.
What you should do is go to Preferences and increase the screen refresh rate from 1000 to 2000 and that should help.
-
Having deleted all files and reinstalled with no sucess I followed Tarbat's advice and installed into a directory outside of C:\Program Files.
Things now seem to be working and I've tried a couple of reboots to check with no problems so far. Fingers crossed!

Just for other forum members - this is a suggested Vista solution. XP works fine with the default directories.
-
AirNav - thanks for that - would it be possible to add the abiltiy to change the order to the next 'wish list' ? as it is something that I would find very useful if I am to get the full benefit of the new features. I have had to turn off routes and silhouettes in order to keep the altitude on screen.
Refresh rate already at 2000+ (laptop might not be that new but 2.7ghz / 1.5gb RAM is way above the min spec suggested - no other apps running either)
Preferences menu is the slowest of them all - 2 mins + at least before it opens.
It is a little quicker when not sharing data however
-
Request has been noted.
Make sure you are using RadarBox 2009 and nothing else, as its if thats slow we would be very suprsied unless you have all the features on including network.
-
Thanks AirNav. Just one word, FANTASTIC.
Running on lap top with Vista.
No problems.
Thanks
Malc
-
Hat's off for the latest version!
Running XP and no issues. Glad to see the Flight Numbers in the Logs and the Alerts popping up with the Reg again. 2 big issues for me to have working.
Now I just need more aircraft showing up over here in North America, after running it in AMS for a few days when I was there in the beginning of August. Loads of aircraft,keeps you hopping just trying to keep up!
Again, nice work AirNav

I agree Steve. It will be great if Air Canada gets thier fleet fully equipped. Same for WestJet. If these carriers were equipped I could more then quadruple my ADS-B contacts each day, no problem.

DC,
What columns have you got selected to show in Preferences?
If I untick everything except Brg - I get exactly the same as you :-)
Aha! Wasn't aware I had to do anything, I thought the previous settings would apply. Thanks for the tip, Allocator!
DC
-
Airnav, just noticed you changed the silly "Centered at .." logo at the top of the screen to something more sensible. Much more professional. Thanks!
DC

I have noticed several people seem to be having issues with upgrading I had a problem with upgrading 2 problems found very difficult to get it to download satellite layers and under alerts the any flight within range would only register the first flight in range the other alert functions worked ok (did not try squark).
Unable to get these functions to work properly so disabled the existing RB2009 and done a full install all now working ok
-
Having recently purchased AirNav RadarBox 2007, I have not yet upgraded to the 2008 version. Can I upgrade straight to 2009 (version 2.0) or do I need to upgrade to the 2008 version first? If so is there a link.
Many Thanks in Advance
-
I would think if you backup your navdata file and mylog files from your folder then uninstall 2007 you could then just do a fresh install from the airnav support homepage of the 2009 version.
-
Best to do a fresh install unless you have some data stored you want to save then do as besty8 says.
-
Hi Guys
Well done for the hard work - great update!! For some reason my updated version will not display the company logo, nor will it show the from/to route next to the logos. The files are still in the program, so any suggestions how I can get thses items to display?

Do you get a blank space where the logo and route should be, or are the columns missing from the list - if so, you need to select what you want to see in Preferences.
-
Is it me or is the satellite imagery just a pixelated background. What good is it over a dark or light background. On commonly available imagery on the internet I can clearly see my dustbin in the back garden. The new version has also slowed my powerful p.c. down tremendously. Hopefully someone will tell me to click on a button to produce clear images, otherwise its not worth having.

Welcome to the forum Mike, I'm surprised that you haven't posted before if you've been using RadarBox for a while.
The satellite images are great for me thanks and my PC is running very sweetly. I presume that you've seen this thread for examples of the layers?
http://www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=1294.0
I don't understand what you are saying about a dark or light background - sorry. As you will see on the forum here, people are creating their own colour schemes for use with the satellite layers.
The satellite pictures are downloaded at one zoom level, so if you download a picture and then zoom in or out, the picture will not be in "focus". If you don't like then, then you don't have to use them - remember that this is a "free" option that you get as a RadarBox user, nothing extra to pay :-)
-
Nice job Air Nav,just installed the full version of 2009,perfect,i run Vista and had a few freezes with 2008,this mod or upgrade has certainly slung that out,congrats all round to the developers on a fine piece of work.
-
When I first tried the new update I had the AVG exception problem, but once I had made the exception I have had Radarbox running without problems now for three days.
I then went back and upgraded( after making a copy of my original) 1.5 to 2.0 and that too works without problems on my XP system so I get all my older data back.
So a pat on the back for Airnav, the software is great, and the new features are great and I am a very happy Radarbox user.

Hi
A different problem possibly me! On 2007 and 2008 clicking on fight in the my flights listing with just the scode and flight number showing but no registration produced one these were normally newly delivered aircraft but this feature doesn't seem to work anymore on 2009. I have tried reloading and checked that communication is allowed through the firewall.
Can someone tell me what I should be doing to get the updates surely the Emirates A380 should appear with a reg!
Thanks
-
What's the ModeS code for the Emirates A380? You could try a manual lookup at http://www.gatwickaviationsociety.org.uk/modeslookup.asp to see if GAS have a record for this aircraft.
If the registration is know on the Airnav servers, then it should autopopulate in your MyFlights, even without clicking on it. It's only network flights that you have to click on to populate them.
-
Thanks for this. Having reloaded 2009 I couldn't try the A380 but had 401388 missing at present. It is on the Gatwick site (G-UKPS C208) so for some reason autopopulate isn't working!
-
Yes, looks like autopopulate might not be working at the moment. I've just tried clicking on 10 aircraft in the network list that have no registrations, and all remained blank.
Or it could be the autopopulate server is under heavy-load with everyone using v2.0.
-
Thanks
I try again some other time.
-
It looks great. Though we have noticed that 1.5 was much faster on our pc than 2.0. With an refreshrate of 1 second it takes approximately 4 seconds for an actual refresh on the screen. All menus are extremely slow. When updating from network server all My Flights get a white colour instead of the original red/green/blue colour.
We did a clean install of 2.0.

ajcbakker,
In your case its pretty simple what is happening. We have 2ghz P4 machine being tested in London with WinXP with nothing else installed and it runs under high message conditions however if you add network, uploading and other programs in background etc.. it will slow down and have trouble.
Simply because your using a lot of high end functions on a a machine which must be 5+ years old. You either have to cut back on features or get a fast machine I am afraid.
We can't produce miracles to give all the features and have it running nicely on slow machines.
-
Its early days yet, and fingers FIRMLY crossed, new version is operating trouble-free. It has been over a year now to finally get a stable version that does'nt keep freezing the screen.
I just downloaded the full version, rather than upgrade v1.5. It means I've got V1.3, 1.5 and 2.0 to chose from!
Good work to the upgrade team, like the new features.
Despite all the frustrations over the months, still think Radarbox has superior graphics to SBS-1. Keep up the good work.

Congratulations !
Very happy to uses this
So When Mode C , many airplanes to , i waiting with impatientes this mode for local traffic zone

Hi
I get as far as starting application and it hangs.. Ctrl Alt Delete states programme not responding.
I did an update but could not get into new version. I deleteded 2008 using windows explorer and downloaded the new version.
Need help.
-
Is there any chance of working on MODE C for other traffic,this would be the icing on the cake.?
-
Hi
Sorry. Seems to be working now. Mixture of lack of patients and virus blocking.

Hi dudbaker,
When i start the RB2009 the first time it takes very long every time to start.
So try to wait little longer to see if it starts. (up to 3-5 minutes)
( i'm using vista dual core 2 gig)

Hi All,
I am not the best with the technical stuff so grateful for any help. I upgraded to the new version which looks superb. However I was not getting any flights listed in my log. I uninstalled Airnav and reinstalled it and hey presto my log is now working........but....now I am not getting anything listed in network even though active locations shows everything should be working. I have vista business installed on my pc with norton anti virus installed.
Any ideas please ?

tigiti,
I assume you have AVG Anti Virus installed. If so do the following, double click on the AVG icon next to clock on the right hand corner of your screen.
Go to Tools -> Advanced Settings -> Execptions (under Resident Sheild) -> Add path -> Enter your path to AirNav Systems which is usually:
C:\Program Files\AirNav Systems\
(Location may be differen if using Vista)
Then click apply and run RadarBox 2009 and tell us whether it works.
DorsetGooner,
As its a new version, you need to give firewall permissions to RadarBox 2009 so it can download the network data.

Hello Support,
Just did what you wrote, and RB startup time is ok now <60sec.
Thanks!

Yes, for Vista, you should include the virtual store at C:\Users\xxxxxxxx\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\AirNav Systems\
(where xxxxxxxx is you Vista account name).
-
Hi Support,
Am not sure what AVG anti virus is. I have Norton anti virus. I have lots of different icons but only to the left of the clock in the bottom right hand corner but none stating AVG. Can you help ?
DG
-
If you've got Norton Anti-virus, then you should see a Norton Protection Centre icon. Looks like this (without the X though). Use "Scan Exclusions" to exclude the ANRB folders from virus checking.
-
I have been sending reports to a well-known groups page and this evening have noticed that that on 5 occasions a flight has been tied up with at least three seperate aircraft. According to my log United 937 was operated by N641 and N643 and N652UA today. Your thoughts on this please.
-
WOW, losta new features ! i'm dowloading the upgrade version quickly, many thanks for your work !
-
For 'Brisbane'
I have a similar problem and reported this earlier (see page 6).
I too report daily logs for Sydney to a spotters group and get the same problem.
I think the reporter is picking up old flights from MyLog rather than current flight.
Peter, Sydney

Help please !!
No matter what I try the new2009 ver will not run on my PC. Both 2007 and 2008 have aways worked very well.......any suggestions will be very welcome. The program gets to just drops to "Not Responding"

Rod W,
I hope that means you found the AVG fix or Norton fix and not waiting each time for ages for it to load :)

I have to say I am unaware of the AVG fix, please tell me more as yes, it is taking quite a while to load still.
Many thanks

Airnav,
Mine is taking around 3 mins + to load, even with exceptions in Norton, it seems to take its time checking the my log db then it is ok ?? i have 8k + aircraft in my log
(although this is not a major problem as the program now seems to run for days, without any restarts so far, it is still anoying)
-
When it loads, can you press CTRL - ALT - DEL and Process, sort by CPU and tell us the names of the top two process and there CPU values.
-
In case others haven't realised, if you're using Vista, you also need virus checking exceptions for the Virtual Store. C:\Users\xxxxxxxx\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\AirNav Systems
Otherwise Norton (or others) will constantly be checking the MyLog and Navdata databases, which really slows everything down.
Or, my advise is NOT to install ANRB in C:\Program Files\AirNav Systems, but somewhere like C:\AirNav Systems
-
ANRB 90+ Initially until the green loading menu drops to nav data then
SYSTEM IDLE 80+
ANRB 20 -30 THEN goes top. wit upto 90
Once loaded ANRB 08-30
Similar issue with laptop, also takes ages to load but I have copied my log to laptop.
-
Whats your computer spec?
-
OLD !
AMD Athlon 64 3400 2.19 GHz
1 GB RAM
VISTA Home Premium 32 Bit
-
That still should be fine. We will take a look and see whether we can replicate it.
-
Thanks Airnav keep me posted. If you require any more info let me know.
-
Hi Support and development,
one thing: thx very much for your excellent work with this version.
The last version (2008) was very bad, RB freeze and another problems happen.
Now with this version is wonderful, work's fine. RB now is very light and no problem at moment on my pc.
Thx very much and continue with this excelent work.
Regards
Miguel
-
Hi
I'm very pleased to say that the fix you provided for AVG has resolved the time taken to load problem for me. I didn't get round to applying it until late on last evening so I'm now looking forward to discovering the new version over the weekend.
Again my sincere thanks

Hi there
Im quite impressed with the 2009 edition but have noticed an issue which is bugging me. Although nobody else here seems to be getting it so could just be me messing up.
Basically I get all myflights and network flights fine but whenever I try and use the filter I get problems. Say if I select "aircraft" and "B744" in the drop down menus then press "filter" it does nothing for about a minute. Then the aircraft list goes blank (even though there are B744 visible on my map screen!).
Then when i try and return to "show all" it does nothing.
Theres no aircraft list in either myflights or network tab. The map still works fine.
The only way I can get my list back is by shutting down ANRB and starting it up again.
The first install was the upgrade from the 2008 edition. But when the problems started I uninstalled it and installed the whole 2009 edition from scratch. But still had problems so today I uninstalled again (from C:/program files/AirNav.....) and reinstalled into C:/AirNav Radarbox.... but still no joy.
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Wayne
-
Wayne,
Use Aircraft = B744 then click filter. That should work.

-
Hi Allocator
Im afraid that is exactly what I have been doing all along. With my previous ANRB (which worked) and with this 2009 edition. But its only with the new spec that I have been getting problems.
Everytime I try and filter something, whether its airline, aircraft, company etc. If I select the company for example in the drop down, then british airways (plenty of them on my map as im in London) then press filter it does nothing for about a minute. All I get is a blank line where my aircraft list was. (This happens with both myflights and network tabs)
If I want to bring the aircraft list back, usually I could press the "show all" button afterwards but this does nothing.
Ok ive added a screenshot taken just now. Tried to get a filter for British Midland. There was one a/c on my map at the time in the picture. It should have been added to the filter list.....but wasnt!
-
OK, 2 things here.
Look at the company names in the aircraft list. I don't have any called "British Midland Airways Ltd", so I get the same result as you.
However, I do have "BMI British Midland" in the list, so when I do a search for:
Company = BMI British Midland
then the search works correctly.
The same applies for British airways. In the list they are "British Airways" not "British Airways Plc" or any of the other British Airways options in the drop down.
Also, why isn't there anything in that middle drop down box between the Company bit and the British Midland Airways Ltd. You should have one of the following in that drop-down:
=
<>
>
<
and of course what you need is "="
-
Climb1, I also suffer from this problem with the filter.
I have other issues with the smooth running of RadarBox, which have been aired in this forum a number of times, but in respect of which I don't seem to be getting anywhere. I've been in contact with Andre Brandao about these issues, including the one which you detail (quote from my E mail: "I sit and wait for ages for menus to appear, or clicked buttons to function. I've also found that selecting the Airline filter menu rarely works - either by selecting All or a specific airline. I am sitting here at the moment staring at an empty radar map."
I appreciate that mine is allegedly an unusual case (as Airnav is at pains to remind me), but promises of possible remedies have yet to be fulfilled.
DC
-
DC,
I don't recall your filter problem - are you running Vista, I don't remember. The only way I can confuse the Quick Filter is by not selecting anything in that centre drop-down box - specifically "="
If you enter the Quick Filter details correctly as I described above, what happens?
Remember, if you filter for something that doesn't exist - and remember, it has to match 100% here - you will get an empty list. Filter correctly and it works correctly.
It doesn't really help you, but I use the filters all the time and they are excellent.
-
DeadCalm,
We have been in contact with you and we are trying to determine the cause. However as I am sure you are aware your issues have only been mentioned by other customers. So thats 2 customers out of nearly 1000 who have upgraded.
Hence we are having difficulty recreating the issue on our computers. Can you please try on a different machine and get back to us?
-
Hi All,
After installing the FULL-version 2.0 of the RadarBox software all looks working beautifull on my PC.
The only problem I see is the route-information. So I asking me of it is allowed to copy my database-backup from version 1.5 into version 2.0 so that I have all my added route information (more then 1.000) back or is al my work (again) been for nothing.
I also see verry strange things as, per exemple, flight BAW7. It is for years EGLL-RJAA but on the RadarBox it appers as EGLL-CYUL. I am sure that in my database used in version 1.5 the route information of this flight is correct.
Any advice will be verry welcome. Thank you in advance.
-
Copy the backed up file into the RadarBox 2009 folder and it should update it to the new format.
However please note if there are some issues with that database it might fail and you won't see any routes appearing.
-
OK AirNav Support,
Thank you again for your fast reaction! Is there a specific file that a I have to copy into version 2.0 or should I copy the whole "Data-map" from version 1.5 into it?
-
Like I said in my first post "it could just be me messing up". Thanks Allocator. Its all working mighty fine now! The bizarre thing is I never used to use the =<> drop down box in the previous ANRB versions and seemed to work ok (honestly!) But obviously I wasnt using it properly. lol.
Many thanks again.
Wayne
-
The new version is very good,
the only thing i would change is puting changed and tracked at the end of the
interface and have status first because it would make more space for the map.
-
Hi Showchen and welcome!
We're all hoping that the option to have the columns in whatever order we want will be in the next version.

Hello there Support and everyone on the Forum. Just installed Version 2.0
Everything is working fine but just one small problem: after the update my Radar doesn't show any logos at all despite they're all in the Logos paste in the correct location. Any ideas? Thanks in advance and thanks for the update this version is much better than Version 1.5

Did you do a new full install, or did you do an upgrade?
What version of Windows are you running, XP or Vista?
The logo's can't be in the right place. They should be in the \Data\Logos directory.
-
Hello. I just updated from version 1.5 to version 2.0
I'm running ANRB on Windows XP Service Pack 3. PC with 2.5GB of memory and a Centrino Duo 2Ghz system. Thanks.
-
Hello. I just updated from version 1.5 to version 2.0
Hi Manuel,
I also had some problems after upgrading from 1.5 to 2.0. AirNav Support did recommend me to install the full version 2.0. After doing that all problems where solved.
-
Manuel
You could check that the logo files are in the correct place.
(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3271/2849176120_99da9b4b50.jpg)
Don't take any notice of the directories that end with Org (Original) - these are just backup folders I've created.
-
Hi again. Affirmative. The logos are on the correct folder on the correct place. Maybe I'll try to leave my Radar on for the night too see what appens.
-
Manuel,
I suggest that you do a full install of RadarBox 2009 as it looks like the upgrade didn't work completely.
-
OK. Thanks for all your help.
-
I had exactly the same problem Manuel and despite re-trying the upgrade several times it never fixed it. Tried the full install instead and copied over my NavData database, photos etc. from v1.5 and all worked fine. Go the full install route instead :)

Just a reminder: whenever you have suggestions (like the great suggestion for an up and down arrow for the vertical speed label) send it to our support at [email protected]

Oh ok sorry. Next time I'll do that. Thanks.

Manuel - do post your suggestions on the forum as well so we can all share them. One good suggestion often creates another!

Aplogies if this has been discussed previously.
The daily Report function has been greatly improved in ANRB'09. However, it only appears to include one entry per aircraft in the Daily Report ie multiple sectors for a particular aircraft are omitted.
Is there a way around this problem. (Airnav ACARS has always reported correctly), am I missing something, or could this be amended in the next patch/release.
Regards
Mike

Mike,
This has already been noted :)

Looking for military a/c, do they show ?
For example UK military show as 43C???
The competitive box does.....
Thanks

Peter, yes of course - RadarBox can do everything better than the SBS-1 right out of the box :-)
Also, see the FAQ on the forum regarding displaying military flags and the section in the downloadable help manual which talks about tracking military aircraft.
Remember that military aircraft will only show in the aircraft list with both boxes, and not on the map.

Hi,
Brand new puchaser of system. Installed and runs well BUT the CD supplied is for AIRNAV2007. Tried down loading update but failed and then tried renaming folder as old and down loaded the full package. When started the green box shows validating the db3, optimising and then starting the application then nothing. Windows task master shows prog not responding. Reloading the orginal cd and all is well.
Any sugestions what to try next ?

I assume you have AVG Anti Virus installed. If so do the following, double click on the AVG icon next to clock on the right hand corner of your screen.
Go to Tools -> Advanced Settings -> Execptions (under Resident Sheild) -> Add path -> Enter your path to AirNav Systems which is usually:
C:\Program Files\AirNav Systems\
(Location may be differen if using Vista)
Then click apply and run RadarBox 2009 and tell us whether it works.
-
Sorry but problem now fixed. I looked thru a number of passed e-mails on the forum and the penny dropped. Yes it was the AVG. Suggest this is added to the download page to remind idiots such as me to check.
Many thanks for an great product.
-
Thats done the trick although 2009 is a little slower on starting.
Thanks very much for your help

Hi,
How do I know what version I am running? Just got the Radarbox yesterday, do I need to upgrade to version 2?
Thanks
-
Hi - if the title bar at the top of the screen says "AirNav RadarBox 2009", then you're running the latest version.
If it doesn't say that, then download the latest version (the full one, not the upgrade) here: http://www.airnavsystems.com/RadarBox/support.html (http://www.airnavsystems.com/RadarBox/support.html)

Anyone else noticing that the daily report only gets mailed once? Restarting the program gets me a report the next day, but then no longer. Do I have to restart every day? Thanks!
