The date everyone was waiting for has arrived.
After hundreds of programming hours V3.0 - Beta is ready for download.
This marks one more milestone on the successful RadarBox project which has been, just one month ago, the first ADS-B receiver is space.
Note the application is being released as public beta - despite hundreds of testing hours we are totally open for your suggestions.
The download and upgrade are totally free.
RadarBox is the only receiver with an integrated worldwide ADS-B network and with a huge set of features inside a single application without the need of installing 3rd party addons. AirNav RadarBox 2009 - V3.00 is by far the most complete, sophisticated, reliable and accurate ADS-B decoding software ever released.
As usual work never stops at AirNav Systems. We are already developing the brand new "AirNav FlightWatch" application to be released later this year. This will be focused on the professional market but with an enthusiast version also available. It is the only software able to track flights using an worldwide data source network: FAA Radar System, ADS-B, RadarBox Unit, ACARS and Flight Plan information.

Many thanks AirNav Team downloading NOW!
-
Thanks to the Airnav team & beta testers.
-
Upgrading now, excting times!
-
A big "Thank you" to all Airnav staff!
And you even put in the Up/Down arrows. Wonder how you implemented that at last ;O)
-
Thank you AirNav.
One thing: what happened to BEJ VOR and BJA NDB? It has vanished away...
-
Thanks AirNav and testers looking good, just got to find some of the new aditions now.

I've got BJA in Algeria. Have you got the NDB's turned on? Map > Aviation Signs > NDB
-
Yes NDB, VOR is turned on and there are no VOR dispayed for Portugal only NDB.

Where abouts are these infamous up/down arrows meant to be?
-
Thanks Airnav for all of the effort made!!!
Best Regards
-
Yes NDB, VOR is turned on and there are no VOR dispayed for Portugal only NDB.
And also no up/down arrows for testing. By the way how do I write in the labels?
-
Thanks AirNav, downloaded OK and installed on Vista PC with no probs,
and just had my 1st BMA E145 with a callsign :-)
-
sorry to say but malta, pantelleria and lampedusa seem to have disappeared from the maps as islands not as airports floating in the med. good work all the same

Hi
I have tried both the upgrade an full download. When I try to run the programme I get this message.
ANRB.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

ottringham and poll hill vor missing

Maybe a corrupted vor file in the installer. We are checking this right now.
-
How can we get the stuff thats in the screenshot forum for Heathrow?
-
And the weather bug was not fixed. I still type two or three different airport codes and they appear on the list multiple times the same code.
Example: I type LPMA to check Madeira METAR, a few minutes later if I type another code I see LPMA on the list 5x.

I can see these, as either the code or the name without any problem.
Edit: Not Doncaster in fact, but that wasn't there before anyway.

Same problem here, I get the same message, neither the update or full program works, tried it on two different machines, both XP Pro SP3.
Not a great start.

Anybody noticed that you can now press + and - to zoom in and out? :-)))

Dean Cross VOR doesnt appear to show either.
However the waypoints appear much more clearly now.
On the subject of WayPoints (Fix's) I see there are also many more added, including the ones indicating distances to VORs. Is there any of of toggling these extra ones on and off?
James
-
Checked. It's 3.0 Beta.
Okay. Maybe try the Clear Drop-Down List Entries button in Preferences, and then see if you still have the problem.
-
I found a bug. When I go to full screen and then return by pressing escape the aircraft are shown but not the map.

Yes, noticed this as well. It's a shame, as I've had to turn fixes off for now - too many!! We're never satisfied, are we!

Yes, the navigation data was always going to be a difficult area to beta test, without knowledge of the whole world. Is it worth a separate thread for people to post missing VORs, NDBs, FIXs, etc...

Same Here.
-
Please do not post individual VORs which are missing. The database should have the latest AIRAC Cycle. So if there missing there may be something to do with the data being passed through into RadarBox we will check.
Also just a reminder again. This is a beta so we are to catch bugs and any suggestions. To the guys who can't run the software, we are investigating this, this wasn't seen in any of the closed beta tests.
-
Don't know about those others reporting the full screen + esc problem, but v2.0 always did this for me so it's a bug that has not yet been fixed.

Anyone looked at MyLog Reporter?
Seem to be getting duplicate entries
-
I also have the problem of a blank blue screen when returning from full screen, with just the aircraft displayed on a blue background. Worked okay in the final closed beta.

Quick fix is to do on the menu bar - MAP - OPEN/SAVE - OPEN MAP.
-
How about new VORs on the map that aren't actually VORs! How did that happen?

Just check the times on those duplicates. I'm only getting them when they are well separated in time. Maybe being seen as 2 separate flights?

Ditto on duplicates in MyLog. I only see duplicates when there's a time-gap between flights. Looks okay to me.

Just done a full install.
Runs faster, menu's faster, search engine faster.
It's just faster.

Looking at Allocator's log extract, it seems that the two aircraft that are listed twice are first on the outward and then on the return legs of their routes, so they are probably legit 'dupes'. Less sure about the first 4 entries, the second pair looks similar but one route missing, and the first pair has too little information to work out what's happening.
I suspect it is useful to know that you've seen something twice, even if the times are not *that* far apart.

Full screen back to normal works just fine for me. It's blank for a split second then everything loads.
This is on my new Dell Studio with Vista Home Premium 64-bit, 4GB ram. dual core.
I'm not getting any KC-135 flight IDs though. I still need to verify with an SBS user as to whether or not they even have a flight ID.
1915- Seeing my first flight ID for a Pittsburgh based KC-135, STEEL01.
Now to get a C-5...
Seeing at least one flight ID for an FBI Cessna now too.
Seems like I'm seeing a lot more flight IDs in general.
-
Possible bug: This does not seem to be showing * for new aircraft in the My Log Report. Only ones that display the * are the unknowns listed at the top of the report. I reset the database and still does the same thing.
Another bug: Menus stop responding after a while. ~20 mins or so.
This is the menu as it should be
(http://www.solarix.net/images/goodmenu.jpg)
Here is what the menu looks like after trying to open items. It highlights but does not open.
(http://www.solarix.net/images/badmenu.jpg)
I am using Windows 7 x64 and also had this menu bug with Vista x64 SP1 too.
-
This is the real beta testing!
Many things have changed in the software programming core.
We want to collect as many data as possible to proceed with final corrections. Pls keep sending the reports. We will only start doing corrections after 24/48 hours.
The VOR problem will have a correction in a few minutes.

For those users that already installed V3.0 download the file below and unzip it to your RadarBox\data folder (overwriting the existing file).

For all the others we have changed the .exe installer already to have the latest file inside.

Eggplant: thanks a lot for this very nice comment. You can't imagine the hard work to get this application to be so robust. Now let's work on all the complaints we have received so we can release V3.0 (no beta) in 2 weeks. Keep the reports coming.

It's good to know the VOR problem is now solved.
BTW the worldwide air navigation data present in V3.0 (Airport, Runway, VOR, NDB, FIX, Airway) contains the latest official AIRAC cycle, details below:
AIRAC cycle : 0906
Valid (from/to): 04/JUN/2009 - 01/JUL/2009
For those who don't know what an AIRAC cycle is:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeronautical_Information_Publication
Having this data enables us to do screen shots like the one below.

Thanks, I do confirm. Changing from "," to "." into the control panel it works fine!
-
The airline/operators I've entered via Database Explorer are not showing up in MyLog. The new MyLog entries are what they would be if downloaded from the internet. It is currently set to NOT Auto-Populate Aircraft Data.
Example: I've changed all the USA- Air Force entries to USAF and sometimes added the unit too. Aircraft I've logged since the change still show USAF in DB EX, but are showing USA - Air Force or United States Air Force in MyLog. Populate will not change this.
-
This is the correct behaviour - MyLog is an historical record showing how things were when the record was created. Changing data through Database Explorer changes the data that will be used for future records.
For example, if an aircraft changes ownership, you wouldn't want old records showing the new owner - you would want them showing the owner at the time, but changing the owner in database explorer means that future records will show the current owner.
Hope that helps

This is the correct behaviour - MyLog is an historical record showing how things were when the record was created. Changing data through Database Explorer changes the data that will be used for future records.
The data has existed for months in the way I've entered it and has been displaying as such in MyLog up until I updated to v3 today. Now some, not all, of the Air Force entries are changing in MyLog when I receive them again.
This entry has existed for months with USAF as the operator. In MyLog and on the main screen it would say USAF. Now on the main screen and MyLog it says United States Air Force despite the DB still saying USAF.
At 2146 it's now doing the same thing, showing USA - Air Force, for an A-10 that I manually entered the entire entry from the start because it's not in any of the online databases.
-
freqhopping,
You probably need to unclick AUTO-POPULATE in the preferences. Coast Guard 1702 turned into a Slovak Air Force jet for me. You will get a lot of bad info if you let it auto-populate.
-
It looks like the alerts aren't working properly when sent to my email. No aircraft info or altitude just the time and hex code.
-
Hello,
I am not getting any alerts using the range settings. I have it set the same way I did in version two.
Anyone else experience this yet?
Edit: Just went back to the original version two and immediately regained range alerts so there is an issue there.
Thanks
-
... they are probably legit 'dupes' ...
Any chance of AirNav telling us what they are using for an algorithm here?
-
Beta 3.0 started off great here on home Vista but then My Log/Reporter
stopped working at all.
I liked getting more US Navy aircraft ID's so that was a plus!
Autopopulate started off great then lost My Log/reporter..
Needs work but I think you are headed in right direction.

Oh yes I remember your dilemma was the same as mine. There were a number of us Canuks that couldn't use this feature. I've just tried the e-mail function 4 times to make sure I wasn't dreaming. I celebrated by having a beer. Now if we can work on a SMS feature for the next release.

... they are probably legit 'dupes' ...
Any chance of AirNav telling us what they are using for an algorithm here?
I don't know what algorithm is either, but a good rule-of-thumb which I've been using in my own flights database for the past 3 years is to trigger a new flight record if either there is a break of more than X minutes (I use 15) in the reception of signals from the same aircraft, or (obviously) a change in FlightID.
It might be worth making the former a configurable RadarBox parameter as it may be depend on a user's location, particularly proximity to an airfield. No rule will be foolproof, but this one works pretty well for me.

Ive just installed the VOR Fix. POL is back, But the BEE/BMA E145 Flight ID's are not.
They were there before I installed this update
Jonjo
EDIT: Some are appearing now, but ive got a significant amount with no Flight ID (BEE, EZE, BMA etc)

Hi
I have done the full install and everythig generally working well for me, VORs now ok, full screen and return work ok.
I am having some duplicate records in MyLog reporter after only a few minutes of running and they are the same flight number with a minute or two difference in time.
How do you enter custom labels? I have gone Maps > Custom label but then nothing, any help appreciated
Running XP home Sp3
Thanks for a good job

Thanks for the update airnav, installed ok on my laptop with vista OS, but no luck on my home pc with Windows XP with SP3, also noticed that Aruba (TNCA) is still missing and that Statia (TNCE) has no run way anymore, it was there before! I think that for future releases it would be a great option to allow the user to draw or just have a way to edit this. Hope to see a fix soon for that XP problem............................

On my laptop running Windows XP SP3 I too get the "anrb.exe has encountered a problem" error message.
Unfortunately, I took the precaution of renaming the existing Radarbox folder to "Old Radarbox" and when I try to run that version I get the same error message.

Hello guys. We are reading each post in detail. Our programming team is already trying to find out what might be wrong with Windows SP3. We want to have a new exe available until 22 PM European Central Time today. Stby for further news and keep sending your reports.

Updated to V3.0 beta running Vista Ultimate 64bit and have a couple of questions
1) Has the driver issue been fixed or do I still have to hit F8 on start-up
2) What do I have to do to display up/down arrows as I am still seeing +/-
Otherwise seems to be working fine

Great job Airnav
Seems to be working fine here, with the last update

Hello,
thanks for doing all the good work to get version 3 online!
I life in the Netherlands 9 miles from ehrd 21 from eham.
So i have a lot of traffic during the day. more then 3000 planes.
But when i turn on fix, the system get to slow to work with. To much fix points around this area .
check my site to see the area.
fix is now turned off, only airports are on.
www.titigti.com/radar/
I'm using vista, with a intel duel core 2 gig.
All the other old bugs, like slow menu's seems to be ok now.

If you look for a program called EasyBCD from NeoSmart you will be able to configure Vista64 not to require signed drivers, I don't have the 64 bit version but I do use EasyBCD.

It's likely to be one of the new files has overwritten the old versions in a directory other than the Airnav tree, so both versions have to use that file. That'll be why v2.01 is broken now.
You could reinstall it until v3.0 gets sorted out.

hi airnav, possibility to select the tracks of aircraft to be displayed even after aircraft time out? Then I can view the day's tracks that was logged.
What about adding various days in reporter? not just today and yesterday?
thanks

all seemes to be ok here on XP sp3 ... no problem
But why only MSG 3 on port 30003 ?
and now on this port also 5mn delayed like port 7879 !!

Hi Support,
My compliments with the great job you have done with your team of developers and testers.
I am verry under the impression of all the new improvements and new items you have brought to us today with this new version 3.0 Beta.
Superfluous to say that all is working verry smooth here with me.
Thank you verry much for this new version!

Hi guys,
I have uninstalled version 2 and reinstalled the full version 3. Flybe flights are still not showing their flight id's for dash 8's althought the Loganair SF 340's details are now showing along with route information. Any ideas ?
Also my home location appears to have moved. It's not showing the correct position according to what I had entered in Preferences.
Help appreciated.
Edit: Home Location now ok. Used Google Earth to reset. However in version 2 you used to be able to alter the size of the grid by moving your cursor down the side of it until 2 horizontal bars appeared and then moving it over to give a smaller grid and hence a bigger map horizontally. This does not seem to be there in version 3. Also having a closer look it would appear thet some flybes are giving full details and some are not. Perhaps Tarbat would know. Do all flybe dash 8 give flight id's.
-

Flight IDs can take some time to appear. On these non-ADS/B aircraft, a ModeS ground station has to request the information before you see it in Radarbox. So, if there's no ground station nearby, you have to wait until the aircraft is high enough before a more distant ModeS ground station requests this squitter. I think!!
During beta testing I made this observation:
Comparing Radarbox FlightIDs today against the FlightIDs seen by my friend's SBS-1, RB missed 20 FlightIDs. Of course, this might well be caused by reception conditions being different in my friend's location. In fact, there were 14 aircraft where RB detected a FlightID where the SBS-1 didn't.
Also my home location appears to have moved. It's not showing the correct position according to what I had entered in Preferences.
Check that you've ticked the box in Preferences to Draw Home Location Legend.

Have run v3. Beta on both an XP SP3 desktop PC and on a Vista Laptop and working very well on both. I did have a problem on the XP machine first off when I tried an upgrade rather than a full install. When I did a delete of old program on the XP and ran the full install all worked right away.
Thanks Airnav

Bear in mind, though, that some non-ADS-B aircraft (such as USAF C-17s) still transmit the Aircraft Identification Squitter containing the callsign at 5-second intervals whether or not they are being interrogated by a ground station.
In SBS-land, these get shown by a solid circle on the display, meaning "we are receiving ADS-B messages from the plane, but that they do not contain latitude and longitude data". Both RadarBox and BaseStation will display the callsign as they do for any other ADS-B aircraft, except that obviously no lat/lon will be shown.

Thanks guys for all your help. I will wait and see what develops re flybe. None on at the moment. Typical. One other small problem when I switch the RB off and switch on again, the initial map which comes up is of the world and not the one of my local area/home location. Any idea how to get the program to default to my home map. Did not have this problem before.
Cheers.

Hi snowman,
have a try on the fonts available in this thread: http://www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=2864.0
However, using the type A font the up arrow is shown only. Using the type B font you get both, up & down arrows, but unfortunately all hyphen characters are shown as a down arrow too, as this character is being used in the radarbox software to indicate a descend rather than the real minus character. It's not an error of the font!

Can anyone confirm if 'Lakey' is in the correct position. I used to be able to cover all the Scottish Central Belt airports and position 'Lakey' on one map view on the old version but with version 3 it's proving to be a bit of a problem trying to position the map correctly with the names of the fixes showing. I've tried various zooming in and out without much success. It looks as if 'Lakey' is positioned too far south now.

What entries do you have for Taiwan in the D008.dat file (in your ANRB/Data folder).
Mine look like this:

It appears the Bermudan and Cayman flags have done a runner as well
Edit - just copied my old D008 form V2.0 into V3.0 Data and everythings good again:-)

Check your D008.dat file. Did you do a new install, or an update? I'm guessing that with a new install, you'll get the default D008.dat file, without all my customisation for other countries.

Hi tarbat,
I wonder how you managed to have the toolbar at the position where they are. Mine look like this
(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3361/3640573767_2d1ebf864a.jpg)
and I would like to move them to an other position. Any idea how this is done? They only changed position in the beta 3.
BTW: I haven't found out how the the "custom legend" works. Anyone know how it's done?
-
There are so many fixes now showing they are tending to clash with aircraft movements. Without turning them off as they are useful to have especially when listening in at the same time do any of our 5 star members have a particular colour they like to use for them.
Position of Lakey now fixed. Somehow the Map projection was set wrong.

That indicates that they have a Mode A/C transponder, but not necessarily Mode S.

Now that you mention it will there ever be an ability to recieve Mode A/C transponders, or is it because Mode-S is more widely used? So that we can recieve those also....

Hi, Lakey is my local Waypoint!
One way to make sure if it is in the right position is to add this attached .out file which I made personally last week, which is of Lake Windermere.
'Lakey' is about 2 Nautical Miles south of the lake, and slightly to the left. Also, its in a direct line between DCS VOR, and MCT VOR.
Hope this helps,

Hi Airnav,
Noticed a marked increase in recieved flights today (Average in myflights up from 60 -70 to 70-90) and I'm about 300 on up one what I would normally have recieved by this hour.
Two small bugs you may want to look at
1. We now have EGCN Doncaster Robin Hood Airport (Thank you) but no airfield label
and you have removed Sheffield City Airport but left the label. (screenshot 1)
2. When going from full screen and pressing esc to go back, the map disapears. (screenshot 2)
Cheers John
Edit - Had to reboot RB to get the map back if this helps

Can anyone tell me how to get the up/down arrows - I'm only seeing the +/-
Without messing around with your Window fonts (http://www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=2864), +/- is the only option.
I see - I must have mis-understood, I thought this was one of the enhancements in the beta release !
- Duplicates in the Reporter bug corrected;
- Remember of Last Color Used;
- Up/Down arrows to show Vertical Rate on maps;
At the risk of being boring it does say in the list of features in this beta release that up/down arrows will be displayed, as shown in the above copied from the announcement.
Is this just done via the fonts as previously stated (with the associated route problem with the hyphen) or is it is a software fix - in which case it's not working !

Fair enough - would be nice to have it the official 3.0 release though !
Please not until the bugs are all squashed, the wide beta has been available less than 24 hours, I'd hope that the final release won't appear for a couple of weeks to give time to ensure it works correctly on a wide range of hardware and on at least XP with any SP and Vista with any SP. I'm sure Airnav don't want to have people moaning about bugs again for an extended period :)

Copy from reporter in new release. Still getting duplicates, see below.

These aren't duplicates "per se" ... the Callsign block changed. There are a handful of aircraft in the world that have this problem ... I have some heuristics I've developed over the years about what to do about them, but for now I'd say that's not really a bug in ANRB.

In reporter the * for new aircraft does not seem to work

Fenris, Thanks for your help. I have done as you have said and downloaded the program, rebooted and selected the disable Vista 64 button. This did not work immediately so I have again tried to reload the drivers, but to no avail !
Do you have any other thoughts?
Thank you

Installed the full version of V3 beta, however when I try to launch the program a message box appears ¨ARNB.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close¨ I am running XP pro SP3. I notice others are experianceing the same problem, but is there a fix?

No fix yet. I believe we might have wait till 2200. In the mean time have loaded this.

I don't have EasyBCD in front of me to look at just now, it's only on my laptop. I believe that this has to be set and the boot manager setup saved and it should be active on a reboot. I would suggest looking at the NeoSmart forum for advice.

Thanks dudbaker, I still have v2 installed so I am able to continue using RB. Disappointed that v3 has not been tested on SP3 though, never mind it will be sorted eventually

Seeing as we've had access to it for less than 24 hours, don't you think it's too soon to expect it to be perfect? You can continue to use 2.01 as well, the beta tag should tell you that it's still in development.
-

It was beta tested on XP SP3 - I ran many versions of the closed beta on my NC10 laptop, running XP SP3. Worked fine. I always took the time/effort to install each beta on both my desktop and laptop.

This must be something about specific XP SP3 setups on individual PCs.

Have you tried to run the app in compatibility mode. I had this problem and to get around it I right clicked onto the ARNB short cut on the desktop, clicked onto properties and then clicked onto the compatibility tab and ran it in windows 98/windows me mode . Not ideal but it worked for me.

Mark
-
Of course it's to soon to expect it to work perfectly so soon after being released as beta version, and I am happy to be using version 2, and that's exactly what I am doing now, I only mention that I am disappointed that it was not checked on the latest version of windows XP. I shall be waiting patiently for the inevitable fix.
-
I only mention that I am disappointed that it was not checked on the latest version of windows XP.
It was tested on XP SP3 - see my previous post ;(
And I didn't need to use compatibility mode.

Sorry tarbat I did not see your post until after I responded with mine, I have noted that it has been tested on SP3. No offence intended, as previously mentioned I am happy to continue using V2 until a fix is available. I'm only jealous you know :)

You explained on page 9 why you thought 2.01 was broken as well as as 3.0. You suggested a reload of 2.01. I asked where I could find a copy but did not get result.
It took me 12 hours to find. http://www.airnavsystems.com/download/ANRB/ANRB15Setup.exe

Hi Airnav,
When going from full screen and pressing esc to go back, the map disapears. (screenshot 2)
Cheers John
Edit - Had to reboot RB to get the map back if this helps
Like EGNXR I'm also having the problem of going from full screen map to the map disappearing when 'esc' is clicked, and then having to reboot RB.
-
I'm starting to wonder whether it is Sp3 itself that is causing the problem. I too was closed-beta-testing it and it ran (and the current V3 beta continues to run) perfectly well on my XP Sp3 machine (with all MS updates installed).
Rod
-
All,
We have been a bit quiet but its not because we are not doing anything :) Its because we are passing the reports through.
Important notes:
1.) The issue of it not loading in certain installations is being looked act. It is NOT a XP SP3 issue.
2.) Keep giving us more reports. Please post in this thread and do not create others
-
Air Nav
Thanks. I now have 2.01 running thanks tarbat so I can wait.

More on the SP3 issue, I have changed the compatability settings to run as Win98/Me and Ver3 Beta now runs, Hope that helps sort the issue.

Another bug.
I cannot get the split cursor that allows the interface to be made wider or narrower. This is on both XP and Vista PCs.

Hi Viking9,
If you click on the very edge of the menu it allows you to drag, it just does not show you the icon your used to.

Airnav, as you asked for it, here are my current observations using Beta 3:
- Entries of closed maps in windows menu
After having opened and closed some maps, the windows menu shows several entries of maps (eg. 3 x "default.ml3"), even though just one map is currently opened.
- No icon to resize interface window shown
- Custom legend list
Does not work initially. Regional settings of windows must be changed (comma to decimal) in order for this feature to work (using German WinXP).
- Sluggish performance with Aviation Signs "Fix" on
Turning on Fixes, brings the application in an very unresponsive state: menus get shown with an appr. 10 sec delay, paning the map is a stutter game. I guess thats just due to the amount of data handled/available. (System used: WinXP SP3, Quadcore, 4GB)
- Error message in preference menu
When thre is no entry made in the "Station data" section of the "Home station data" tab, an error message saying "Please specify a name" is shown when exiting the preference menu with OK.
Other than that, the software runs perfectly stable with very responsive overall reaction.
-
vruma,
Thanks we are aware of those. The sluggish response with all the fixes is normal :) as there is soo many that it has trouble. A few customers and Professional customers really wanted this.
We will discuss whether there is ways to limit them internally.

Can anyone confirm if 'Lakey' is in the correct position. I used to be able to cover all the Scottish Central Belt airports and position 'Lakey' on one map view on the old version but with version 3 it's proving to be a bit of a problem trying to position the map correctly with the names of the fixes showing. I've tried various zooming in and out without much success. It looks as if 'Lakey' is positioned too far south now.
Hi, Lakey is my local Waypoint!
One way to make sure if it is in the right position is to add this attached .out file which I made personally last week, which is of Lake Windermere.
'Lakey' is about 2 Nautical Miles south of the lake, and slightly to the left. Also, its in a direct line between DCS VOR, and MCT VOR.
Hope this helps,
James
Thanks James,

Is there any chance of having a list of known problems so as to stop everybody repeating the same/similiar problems.?

I have noticed that in the status column that some aircraft are listed as being on the Ground, however on the map they are clearly in the air say 19000ft, I currently have 4 displayed as on the ground but aare in fact in flight.

When I go to 'MAP' at the top of the screen, click on it then 'Set Map To' a list of the various countries comes up but the countries I added on version 2 do not seem to be there. However when I go into C:\AirNav Systems then into AirNav Radarbox 2009 and then into the Map folder all the maps I created in version 2 are there. How do I get these maps to go into the drop down map menu in version 3 without having to individually create them all over again.

I originally had the ANRB.exe has encountered a problem error when trying to run V3 on my Windows XP with SP3 laptop.
I tried the workaround of changing compatability to Win98/ME and found that will allow V3 to run.

Hi Paul,
Who else do you thing would be having the same problem :-) I posted this yesterday and notified AirNav during pre-release beta testing but I haven't heard anything back about it.
http://www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=2893.msg25868#msg25868
Whoops forgot to mention. I did receive 3 flight in range alerts today via e-mail within a radius of 100nm which doesn't make any sense as I have had about 120 ads-b aircraft in that proximity during that time. I set it out to 100nm for testing purposes. Something is definitely wrong. I'm just glad someone else has posted about it.

We are organizing all the reported bugs and will have our main programmer correcting all of them during the following 3 days. The work you are doing is simply great and is helping us a lot. There are no beta testers than real users!
PS: we will try to have a new exe ready by Jun 25.
-
Thanks AirNav.
Another minor bug I've found is in the Alert tab. The 'execute a file' box is always ticked when I restart RadarBox. I currently keep this box unticked as I do not use this option. Anyone else notice this?

Hi Support and All,
I just made my SQL-report of yesterday flightmovements in my area of reception. I did the same I always did before installing version 3.0 Beta.
The results are to cry so bad. If you like to see the report, please let me know and I will sent it to you. When anlyzing this report maybe it gives you possibly an impression of the problems.
-
Thanks dudbaker, I still have v2 installed so I am able to continue using RB. Disappointed that v3 has not been tested on SP3 though, never mind it will be sorted eventually
I have an XP with SP3 and V3 beta is running OK so it is not affecting every XP/SP3 set-up :-(
-
Something I mentioned during the closed beta still appears to be happening to me.
If I leave the program running maximised for a while when I return to it I notice very few aircraft are on the map in my location, if I then zoom in and out on the map when it refreshes new aircraft appear as if by magic?
Anyone else noticed this?

Flickering fields in map, no map title
When using two maps side by side, at certain times two fields can be seen flickering in the active map (left) while paning or zooming in and out using the mouse wheel. I assume those are the fields of the map title and the home position. The map title however is not shown.

Airnav, I do think we need an adjustment to the length of time used to decide whether a new flight has started. At the moment, with just a couple of minutes lost signal from an aircraft, Radarbox creates a new flight record in the log.
I would suggest a time interval of 15 minutes. Does that sound reasonable? Or is this tied-in to the timeout settings?
See examples in my daily report (http://www.tarbat.gofreeserve.com/data.html) - G-CIVD is a good example, three flights:
BAW285 ended 12:50
BAW285 ended 12:55
BAW285 ended 13:09
-
tarbat i agree but looking at your log you would still have picked the flight up twice even with a 15 minute interval. what about 30-45 min
colin
-
I'm not getting any KC-135 flight IDs though. I still need to verify with an SBS user as to whether or not they even have a flight ID.
One in my log yesterday - 58-0093 with FlightID QID95. See log at http://www.tarbat.gofreeserve.com/data.html
In fact, looking through my previous days' logs, I see several KC-135s with FlightIDs like RCH0345, EXPO88, etc.
-
tarbat i agree but looking at your log you would still have picked the flight up twice even with a 15 minute interval. what about 30-45 min
Remember you're only seeing the END TIME in my log report. I'd expect the time interval to be between the END TIME and the next START TIME.
30-45 minutes could mean that an aircraft lands, and then takes off, and you'd only get one flight record in the log. Would only be a problem for aircraft without FlightIDs, because typically the FlightID would change between landing and takeoff.
I think anything more than the turnaround time could be a problem. As an experiment today, I've increased my TIMEOUT time in preferences to see what that does to the log.

There's a discussion about this issue earlier on in this thread: www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=2893.msg25878#msg25878
I had the same problem with my LHR database, trying to decide how soon an aircraft can feasibly reappear after landing - the answer IMHO is to make the "new-flight timout" a user-configurable parameter.

Agreed. 15 minutes sounds like a useful default, and maybe let the user change that in Preferences.
Airnav, can we get this change included in the next beta?

This is a wierd one;
On the map display i keep losing the plane symbol and info from any new planes coming on to the display particuarly fom the bottom of the screen going north.If it weren't for the trails I wouldn't know they were there.
However if i zoom in or out the plane symbol and info appear no problem!
Keep up the good work airnav.

Somehow my observation seems similar to the quoted post of Simon: having the map open for a while, one can see for instance three flights displayed on that map. When now you zoom out and back in again, suddenly there are many more than those three flights shown. Could this be a screen refresh problem?

Looks like a similar problem to what I have experienced and posted earlier. I have seen this in the closed beta and the open one. I guess others are missing this because the aircraft are not there unless you zoom in/out. They do appear in the aircraft list but not the map so it looks like a map redraw issue.
UPDATE
After posting this I looked at my map and no aircraft were visible just a few odd trails, zooming in/out and 8 aircraft popped out of nowhere.

Another new issue
When starting the program with hardware and network flights enabled I see network flights on the ground at my local airport that take 5 minutes to timeout, this did not happen in V2. They do go if I switch network off/on.

As an experiment today, I've increased my TIMEOUT time in preferences to see what that does to the log.
Quick update on this. Not a definitive answer, it needs more long-term testing, but increasing the timeout times for local flights appears to cure this problem of duplicate entries in MyLog.
Since 09:00UTC I've been running with local timeouts of 110/790 (total of 15 minutes), and have NO duplicate flight records in My Log. If you want to try this, also remember that you might want to filter the aircraft list on Status<>1Timeout
Would be useful for others to test this to see if they still get duplicate log entries.

About Route information:
Just seen on the map:
KLM1324 EHAM-LEMD; should be EVRA-EHAM (like it is known and correctly in the RB route database).
New mystery?

I've a few problems with v3.0 Beta.
1) The label for the Pole Hill VOR seems to have permanently disappeared. When I first started 3.0 Beta I didn't have labels for the Warton and Trent VORs but did have Pole Hill. I exited from the program and re-entered. I found then that the labels for Warton and Trent had appeared but now I've lost Pole Hill (see attached screen shot).
2) A bug I repported several months ago is still present. The text showing the aircraft details to the right of the photo of the aircraft is getting clipped by something on the far right of the panel (I have circled this in red on the screen shot). If I cover up that area with something like NotePad and then minimise NotePad to force a repainting of that area then the text is displayed correctly. I obvious don't want to keep popping up NotePad though. Putting the mouse over the flight on the map redisplays the text and it gets clipped again.
3) As some others have reported, I am now swamped by Waypoints. Compare waypoints on the v2.0 screen shot with those on the v3.0.
I am running under Windows XP with SP3. I did a complete install of 3.0 Beta to a new directory.
-
Andy,
I can only get the truncated information if I select one ac photo only and increase the size of the map so that it's only showing as far as the "SmartView" tab. If you reduce the size of your map by a fraction, I'd guess that this problem goes away. It's almost as if there is a small 'border' to the left of the map window.
I run with 2 photos selected and the map covering the ADS-B Only button at the top with the Show all button visible.
I'm gett the Pole Hill label OK. Are you using the new .dat file?
-
That's called a "work-around" in the business! Adapting usage to an existing bug.
There is no problem with me being able to see the text with my map that size (I want to see as much of the map as possible) because the text is drawn correctly if I refresh it manually using NotePad as described above. The problem is that something else is being drawn unnecessarily over that text when it is updated. If it is a map border then it should be refreshed before the text is drawn and not after it.

Anybody else noticed the Wandering Weather toolbar? It seems to randomly switch between these two positions ( and I once saw it over on the left beside the Menu):

The reason why I've never seen this before is because I've never had the aircraft list so small :-)
I need to see:
ACARS
Globe
Mode S
Flag
Flight ID
Registration
Aircraft
Shilloutte
Airline
Route
And with my lovely big screen 22 inch screen running at 1680 x 1050 I can see everything :-)

Edit: In fact I do have the map a bit smaller as I show Altitude and squawk too. That also allows me to see the ADS-B Only button as well.

Oh yes, I can see this now you've pointed it out.

I thought that was just me with all the new stuff floating around

Concerning my previous problem with loss of names on VORs, this seems to be affected by whether I choose to display Fixed points or not. If I remove Fixed points then I get back the name of the Pole Hill VOR. If I add Fixed points then I lose one or more VOR names.
-
Thats probally due to the lack of space of the map then when all the fixes are on.

Andy,
I have the same problem. When I turn on the Fixes, the names of Glasgow and Prestwick airports disappear but when I switch Fixes off the airport names come back on again. The huge increase in Fixes is obviously causing problems.
Cheers,
Ian

Maybe someone can enlighten me, I don't understand where all these extra fix points have come from in 3.0 Beta and why they are necessary. Isn't it enough with the fix points we had in V2.0? I think that was the same as listed at http://www.nats-uk.ead-it.com/aip/current/enr/EG_ENR_4_4_en.pdf (http://www.nats-uk.ead-it.com/aip/current/enr/EG_ENR_4_4_en.pdf) (for the UK anyway). Maybe we can have different levels of the number of fix points the user wants displayed.
Zooming is painfully slow with all the fix points displayed. It can take 8,9 or 10 seconds to zoom one step in/out with my fast Dual-Core machine. Without fix points the zooming is instantaneous.
A small point concerning zooming. Zooming the map in and out with the + or - keys, mouse wheel or right-click menu isn't consistent. One step of zooming in followed by one step of zooming out doesn't put the map back where it was but zooms out one extra step.

I think it has been mentioned somewhere in this thread by Airnav but it is getting so long I cannot find it.

It's probably just a bulk import from a nav aid database. I don't tend to have the fixes, VOR's or NDB's selected on. I also switch the airports off unless I'm zoomed right in to watch the approaches and departures. I don't "need" all these fixes, but there certainly do seem to be an awful lot of them.
-
vruma,
Thanks we are aware of those. The sluggish response with all the fixes is normal :) as there is soo many that it has trouble. A few customers and Professional customers really wanted this.
We will discuss whether there is ways to limit them internally.
Andy, here is the post.

Just as FYI for you guys. Here are the bugs being looked at present
Serious:
Some machines software does not start with error. (Comptability fix)
Aircraft on map disspearing and returning with zoom
High:
Full screen and then return does not show map/aircraft
Duplicate Entries of flights in MyLog, required longer timeout or capabilty for user to change timeout
Check route alogrtithm and sometimes wrong routes are being displayed
Range alerts not working
Low:
Font issue with commas and dots in custom legend
Filter to last ten minutes or one hour in MyLog Missing
No icon to resize interface window shown
Entries of closed maps in windows menu
Error message in preference menu
The 'execute a file' box is always ticked in alerts
Text showing the aircraft details to the right of the photo of the aircraft is getting clipped
No up and down icons for Flights

One step of zooming out = two steps of zooming in. I quite like it like that, since you can zoom out quickly, and then slowly zoom into the area you're interested in.
-
I have also noticed another "feature" in that if you move the mouse over different parts of the map, the local time shown in the bottom left hand corner changes e.g. putting the mouse over the sea puts the displayed time back one hour.
Not sure if this is normal behaviour
-
Suppport - to add to the low list - the Wander Weather toolbar has a side-effect - the last line of the grid can't display properly when the Weather toolbar is up alongside the menu, so I lose a line:

This is a wierd one;
On the map display i keep losing the plane symbol and info from any new planes coming on to the display particuarly fom the bottom of the screen going north.If it weren't for the trails I wouldn't know they were there.
However if i zoom in or out the plane symbol and info appear no problem!
Keep up the good work airnav.
Simon
Looks like a similar problem to what I have experienced and posted earlier. I have seen this in the closed beta and the open one. I guess others are missing this because the aircraft are not there unless you zoom in/out. They do appear in the aircraft list but not the map so it looks like a map redraw issue.
UPDATE
After posting this I looked at my map and no aircraft were visible just a few odd trails, zooming in/out and 8 aircraft popped out of nowhere.
I have had the new version running all day, even though it has been totally overcast here in Chelmsford and nothing has been seen visually. That said, I have noticed like many others that floghts disappear and only return when I zoom in or out. Is this being looked into AirNav?

Can't say that i have notice that one but will keep an eye out when I am using it tomorrow, if the weather is good.

That is exactly what I am getting,trails with no aircraft.

Airnav Support, can you please add the problem of too many fixes now showing and whether some sort of filter to restrict them can be added. Perhaps under 'High' as there have been quite a few mentions.

Running RB V3 beta on XP sp3 laptop - working fine. Database explorer menu seems to appear more quickly than before.
One minor bug is that a lot of the airfied names disappear when adding the vor beacons. Am guessing this is to stop screen becoming too cluttered but it was ok on the previous version
-
Hi Airnav thanx for all the hard work, I got a couple of problems and a couple of remedy`s for some problems others have posted.My problem no alerts work at all also notification does not work, im running Vista sp2 core 2 duo 2.66 with 4 Gb ram, the failure to start also happened to me, I found that right clicking the icon and clicking run as administrator did the trick for me,after this just normal left click starts the programme every time. I also had the navy blue background after esc from full screen,I got round this by going to windows/restore desktop this brought me right back to the screen I was using. By the way i`ve got network flight`s turned off (wish this was default). Regards Lou

Hi after upgrade to v3.0 i have no Logos, Silhouettes or Photo's in my flights(show photos is ticked in tools) .
I'm running Vista Home Premium on laptop. Cheers
-
Did you download/run the update from v2.0, or the full install?
Which folder do you have ANRB installed in?
Do the Silhouette, Photo, and Logo folders exist in your Radabox/Data folder?
-
Hi tarbat tried full install and update. Latest attempt is with update.
ANRB is installed in program files.
Photos Logo Silhouettes are there in Data folder.
-
Don't think anyone else has reported a problem like this. So, all I can suggest is to do a full install, but DON'T use the default location in Program Files. Put it somewhere like C:\Airnav
-
My update seems to be working fine with one exception. Typically while traveling I run RB on my laptop. When I get home I transfer MyLog to my main computer for manipulation (it's faster, easier to use etc). However when I transferred MyLog.db3 from Airnav Systems/AirNav Radarbox 2009/Data I ended up with only historical data, nothing from after when I installed v3.0. Does 3.0 store data in a different place?

Hi Airnav
I also now have noted the trails and no aircraft scenario. if I zoom in/out the aircraft appears. Any advice please?

Another bug I've found which I find really frustrating is the failure to save my label colour preferences. Every time I load the application I have to go through and reset all the label colours as I would like them. It would be great to have them saved to avoid doing this

Snowman, are you saving "Exporting" your colour scheme after making the changes? Your new scheme will then appear in the colour drop-down menu for access with one button click.
-
Not a definitive answer, it needs more long-term testing, but increasing the timeout times for local flights appears to cure this problem of duplicate entries in MyLog.
Okay, this has cured the duplicate entries in MyLog. With a total timeout time of 15 minutes, I don't see any duplicate MyLog entries. I changed timeouts at 10am yesterday, and after that time I have no duplicates - see yesterdays log at http://www.tarbat.gofreeserve.com/data.html

Hi
I installed yesterday on my desktop running XP SP3 with no issues at all.
The only problem I have seen is with the reporter - instead of putting a * next to new aircraft it is only putting next too unknown codes. I could not see this in thelist of bugs already summarised above.

No I'm not - it never occurred to me that the Export button worked like that, but now you've said it it seems fairly obvious. I must have missed that in the User Guide. Thanks Allocator - I'll give it a try now

Export as Default.mcl is best

Hi
Good work! Loved the ZOOM IN OUT keybpard shortcut!
Small bug when working with dual monitors. I can only guess it is some kind of memory adressing problem.
As I work with 2 monitors I can't drag the RadarBox to be displayed on both monitors as I could before. I get white screen and program stuck. Sometimes after 30 sec it come back to life.
It would be nice RD would remeber last windo size configuration..
Thanks
Thanks.

Before the menu's were slow and hanging - now with V3 I have a problem with them being to quick, I click on the menu's and they are gone before I have a chance to select what I want.

I changed timeouts
I changed "Timeout for MyFlights" in the "Preferences">"Radarbox"-window into 110 / 790 (like you did Tarbat?).
I did not analyse my report of yesterday yet, but after a quick view it looks better.

1) The label for the Pole Hill VOR seems to have permanently disappeared. When I first started 3.0 Beta I didn't have labels for the Warton and Trent VORs but did have Pole Hill. I exited from the program and re-entered. I found then that the labels for Warton and Trent had appeared but now I've lost Pole Hill (see attached screen shot).
I second this also, was about to say the same thing regarding Pole Hill Label.
SP3 also.

Regarding the FIX issue,
It appears there are a handfull of new ones added that must be quite recent that definitely want to stay.
The other ones that are just cluttering up the screen tend to be the ones indictating distances to fix's, which are not needed in my opinion.

This directory doesn't exist in upgraded versions. However it appeared when I did a full install. On copying MyLog from this directory to my main PC, I still got the same problem. It's not showing any flights after 8/2008, which is maybe when I did the RB2009 upgrade.

I've done a little more investigating. Firstly I should explain more fully what I am currently doing. While at home I run RB on an XP Pro desktop. It has the full install of the RB 3.0 beta. It seems to be behaving normally. There are two Airnav directories (I'm paraphrasing the full names),
Airnav/Arb 2009/data
Airnav/ARB 2009 3.0 beta/Data
The first contains MyLog.db3 2.38Mb created at 1.51pm today
The second contains MyLog.db3 90Kb created at 3.54pm today
My log appears to run normally on this computer.
When I travel, I take an XP Home SP3 laptop with me, and, in the past, I've transferred MyLog.db3 from the first computer to this. If I do this now, MyLog only runs up as far as June 19. When I get home, I transfer MyLog from the laptop to a desktop running Vista Home SP2. If I do this now, the data only runs as far as June 2008.
Very odd!!
Do I still need the Radarbox 2008 and Radarbox 2009 directories on the various computers?

Solved it. It appears that with my laptop, which was my original RB machine, there were three folders, RB2008, RB2009 and RB 2009 Beta 3.0.
Now it appears that the Beta 3.0 installation writes the new ANRB.exe to EACH of these folders. If you don't change the desktop icon, which I didn't, the laptop ended up pathed to RB2008, the XP desktop to RB2009 and the Vista desktop to RB2009 Beta 3.0.
It seems a daft way to do an installation, but there you are!!

Whn I first installed V3 I had to use the Windows98/ME compatibilty fix to get it to run on my Windows XP laptop.
This morning when I try to start V3, the hardware checking box remains yellow.
On trying to run V2, there is no problem, everything starts normally.
I made the full install of V3 on Friday and it has operated OK over the weekend.

I have also noticed now that v3 and the problem above is effecting the world computer, if I right click on the desktop, the menu just goes in seconds, when I was typeing this text I had to close RB as it was effecting me typeing. I think I may have to go back to v2 until the bugs are sorted.
Would this be a problem caused by useing it in compatibility mode (windows 98/windows Me)
Just a thought - the people having the problems with windows Xp sp3 - could they all be using a bit of software that is causeing the problem - such as AVG, etc etc.
Edit - also effecting the operation of my screen saver.

Found out what the matter was.
I tried to transfer my MyLog file from V3 to V2. Then I got the hardware checking fault with V2.
Went back to an earlier version of MyLog and can now run V3 again.
Don't know why the MyLog caused a problem however.

With the next software amendment will it be possible to correct that most irritating of spelling errors in MyFlights? I am referring to "Leveled" which should, of course read "Levelled". :-)

Strictly speaking "leveled" isn't actually wrong, it's simply the American spelling.
But that doesn't excuse (in Preferences -> RadarBox):
"In some countries it may be ilegal to share flight data. You have to assume total responsability on the consequences of sharing flight data"
I notice there's a post from AirNav looking for users to translate the application into German, French, Portuguese, Spanish, Japanese, Italian, etc - I think they need someone to translate it into English first :-)

Problem that started in v2 and is still in v3. The map freezes and when I close the map and re-open there is no background map just the polar display and the aircraft.

Must have been a bit cramped;-)

-
There seems to be a little gremlin in reporter today. See Attatched Screenshot:-(
Are you referring to 4007FF? If so, then the aircraft set FlightID JCB2 at 8:01:34, change to a different FlightID BCY158C at 08:18:14, and then changed back to JCB2 at 08:18:17. It then probably went out of range, and re-appeared after timeout as FlightID JCB2 at 08:27:39.
Looks correct to me. Although the BCY158C flightID looks a bit strange, so may have been a false reception. EDIT: In fact BCY158C was being used by 4007FD, so a false reception ( http://www.live-civil-mode-s.eu/search/popup.php?zoekstring=4007FD ).
What are your timeout settings?
-
I don't recall this having been mentioned before, but now a lot of aircraft on the ground at airports are showing silly altitudes, headings and speeds. Is RB decoding these correctly?
(http://www.rbearden.toucansurf.com/Airport%20heights.gif)
Rod
-
Are they definately on the ground, and not just overflying?
-
The're not moving very fast, that's for sure :-) - I was going to do the screenshot at Manchester, but overflying aircraft got in the way.
Do I take it from your question that you're not seeing the same thing, Tarbat?
Rod
-
Rod
I have seen this a couple of times at EGNX they are always network aircraft that have not timed out. If I switch network off/on they disappear.
-
Do I take it from your question that you're not seeing the same thing, Tarbat?
I don't use the network much, so no, I haven't seen this. They look like approach speeds, so maybe aircraft transmitting inaccurate positions, and then timing-out on the local users RB.
-
Nope, they aren't timed out, and stopping/restarting the network doesn't work for me - they are almost certainly "live" contacts - and I saw it happen live on MyFlights with a Jet2 B733 at Blackpool an hour or so ago.
EDIT And anyway, most of the aircraft would have stalled flying at those speeds at those altitudes!
Rod
-
Wrong QFE!!!!
-
Hi all
Re Rod's issue, I noticed this yesterday. I had a few aircraft showing over Aldergrove but they had heights speeds inconsistent with an approach? They were or appeared to be live contacts not network. However having used zoom to clear a couple of trail only aircraft these others disappeared?? Related issue perhaps?
John
-
Malc - I don't think it can be a wrong QFE or QNH - I had 1028 set, it's currently 1027 at EGLL - and anyway, the aircraft are showing very different altitudes from each other. Are you not getting this problem?
Rod
-
but after a quick view it looks better.
Hi All,
I have to take back that.
My 24h SQL-report based on "MyLOG.db3" of yesterday gives a total of started flights in my area of reception of 6446. Very distorted I think. There are very much duplicated flights in this report (some flights even more than that).
-
Would be interesting to see your log John. Are the duplicates for aircraft showing FlightIDs, or for aircraft without FlightIDs?
I've just checked my report for today so far, and even with a timeout of 10 minutes, I'm seeing very few duplicates.
-
Tarbat, have just downloaded 3.0. I dont have any airport outlines. How do I get them on please. Colin.

What are your timeout settings?
Hi Tarbat,
Timeout set at 110/780 as per your previous suggestion. I just thought it very strange for JCB to be showing Cityjet callsign and route info. It seems strange the hex codes are so close as well for the aircraft involved.
Cheers John

Just switched on the network flights and I have TCX211L at FL295 over EGNX going absolutley nowhere and it is shown as networked and in the cruise.
This will happen if the local Radarbox receiving the aircraft has a long timeout setting. This happened in v2.0 as well - I reported many months ago aircraft "hovering" at Aberdeen, and established that the local Radarbox had very long timeouts set.
Airnav, this really needs fixing. The local timeout settings shouldn't affect how long an aircraft is shared on the network.
I just thought it very strange for JCB to be showing Cityjet callsign and route info. It seems strange the hex codes are so close as well for the aircraft involved.
Difference between the ModeS codes (4007FF & 4007FD) is just 1 bit - so probably a transmission/reception error.
-
Thanks Tarbat, I have never noticed this before but like you don't use the network that often.
-
TCX613L was tracked by Myflights landing at EGNX 10 mins ago and it is now showing networked at FL265 over EGNX.
I think I will switch the network off again :-)
-
Would be interesting to see your log John. Are the duplicates for aircraft showing FlightIDs, or for aircraft without FlightIDs?
Hi Tarbat,
The file goes herewith as XLS. If you sort the list on "Callsign" you can see what happens and what I mean. I must short the file because it should be to big to sent.

Hi I got home about 3pmish and as I approached the radarbox it had a full set of lights flashing away at a merry old rate. I opened the screen to find it appeared to have frozen this morning around 9.55am UTC. So despite appearing to be running normally it had not recorded any aircraft from then until it was rebooted by me at 14.19 UTC.
Any thoughts please?
John
-
Sorry John, but I'm struggling to see what's wrong with your log. I sorted by Registration, and then by Time. What I see is several records for each aircraft, as it's FlightID changed throughout the day.
Remember, you'll be seeing a LOT more aircraft with FlightIDs in v3.0, now that non-ModeS aircraft have FlightIDs detected.
Perhaps if you can give one aircraft registration where you see incorrect duplicate records, rather than looking through all 5000 records!!
-
Sorry John, but I'm struggling to see what's wrong with your log. I sorted by Registration, and then by Time. What I see is several records for each aircraft, as it's FlightID changed throughout the day.
Tarbat, I hoped you sorted the list by "Callsign". Herwith I sent send you some "highlighted" exemples from the list I sent. Hope you understand now.

Thank you. I know about that but that is not my point at the moment. There is much more in the list to see about things that are not correct I think...
-
Tarbat, I hoped you sorted the list by "Callsign". Herwith I sent send you some "highlighted" exemples from the list I sent. Hope you understand now.
Okay, I see the problem, but I don't see the same problem in my logs. Do your local timeouts definately still add up to 15mins? Any chance the timeout settings didn't get saved?
In your SQL, you need to replace "SELECT" with "SELECT DISTINCT", and remove the line Flights.StartTime
This is the SQL I use for my daily report:
SELECT DISTINCT Aircraft.Registration AS "Reg"
Flights.Callsign AS "Flight ID"
Flights.Route AS "Route"
Aircraft.AircraftTypeSmall AS "ICAO Type"
Aircraft.Airline AS "Airline"
Aircraft.AircraftTypeLong AS "Aircraft"
substr(Flights.EndTime,1,16) AS "Flight Ended"
Flights.StartAltitude AS "Start Alt"
Flights.EndAltitude AS "End Alt"
Flights.MsgCount AS "Count"
Aircraft.ModeS AS "Mode S"
FROM Aircraft LEFT OUTER JOIN Flights ON (Aircraft.ModeS=Flights.ModeS)
WHERE ((date('now','-1 day') = substr(Aircraft.LastTime,1,4)||"-"||substr(Aircraft.LastTime,6,2)||"-"||substr(Aircraft.LastTime,9,2)) AND (Flights.StartTime IS NULL)) OR ((date('now','-1 day') = substr(Flights.EndTime,1,4)||"-"||substr(Flights.EndTime,6,2)||"-"||substr(Flights.EndTime,9,2))) OR ((date('now','-1 day') = substr(Flights.StartTime,1,4)||"-"||substr(Flights.StartTime,6,2)||"-"||substr(Flights.StartTime,9,2)))
ORDER BY Aircraft.Registration,Flights.EndTime,Aircraft.ModeS

Installation problem.
not exactly installation, the update was good but after update if i try to launch
another time RB, it's working hard (50% activity on processor activity only
for one processor) but never start. (waiting 2 hours ...)
re-update and launch directly is good !!!!
start again ... nothing. (only processor activity, no access to Hard disk).
i install RB 3.0 on another directory (c:/airnav/RB30/), copy my files (outlines, color ...)
and no problem. (multiple start)
it's only if i want to update my old directory (also on the root c:/airnav/RB2009/).
Vista Pro pack 1/ intel core duo E8400 3.0 GHZ
Memory 4 Go / two display
Not a problem for me, but for people who want an update with their old
configuration and data ??
All test with ONLY RB and AVG !!! (and all the .à"ù$^' Vista)

Small problem with Airlines filter
The combo box of th Airlines filter is also empty (not the compagny selector display).
if i select compagny its OK but not memory of the old selection (as origin filter).
What is the mode of the list displayed, it's seeem not an Alphabetical list ????
OAG Worlwide before Air Atlantique ....
and so, not possible to fliter for Air France, because the filter use
AFR .... Air France it's AF and more, it's of actuality with
the Rio Flight AF447.
is it possible to modifiy theses data ?
i'm now test the alerts....

Ok Tarbat, the SQL is now:
SELECT DISTINCT
Flights.Route,
Flights.Callsign,
Flights.EndTime,
Flights.ModeS,
Flights.MsgCount,
Flights.Registration,
Flights.Session,
Aircraft.Comment,
Aircraft.LastTime,
Aircraft.FirstTime,
Aircraft.AircraftTypeLong,
Aircraft.AircraftTypeSmall,
Aircraft.Airline,
Aircraft.ModeS,
Aircraft.ModeSCountry,
Aircraft.Registration,
Aircraft.ADSB
FROM
Flights
LEFT OUTER JOIN Aircraft ON (Flights.ModeS=Aircraft.ModeS)
WHERE
(Flights.StartTime LIKE '2009/06/21%')
The settings in "preferences>radarbox" are still 110 / 790
I run the new SQL; the result was the same as before.

Easy one :-)
Use Flight ID = AF*
You can type in the box, you don't have to use the drop down box, and you can use wildcards.
The crews should be entering AFR, but some only enter AF.
-
Sorry John, I'm out of ideas. Try running the SQL I provided in my last post.
Does the standard "TODAY" report in Radarbox show the same problem? Have you been running with those timeout settings all yesterday and today?
-
Sorry John, I'm out of ideas.
No problem Tarbat! It is a very complex problem so it looks. Thank you very much for all the help anyway. Highly appreciated!!!
The "Standard Today" show the same problems; timeout settings are still the same: 110 / 790.

Hi Allocator,
Effectively it's a solution (good one) ...
And now i see why my combo box was empty,
i must select a compagny and type enter to validate !!!!
So AF* is in memory
Many Thanks

Thanks everyone.
We are reading the posts so don't worry and making notes.
The network issue with aircraft staying in there current position with long timeouts is being looked out. Problem we may need everyone to upgrade to a new version to fully eliminate it.
-
This is a bug in V3.0 for flights that send position from ground. We are checking it right now.
-
Alerts don't work properly. I have set up to raise a 5nm range alert. I may get the first one but not any others. If I revert to 2.10, I get my usual number of in range alerts, approx 30 or more in 12 hours.
-
We are already aware of the alerts bug.

Hi All,
I just lost all my local traffic off the map and can't get it back. Just been to make a coffee and returned to the shot below. Any ideas?
John
edit :- Just rebooted RB and its all good again:-) Very Strange!
-
Have you tried zooming in then zooming out again on the map?
-
Have you tried zooming in then zooming out again on the map?
Hi Malc41,
Yes zooming in and out had no effect, tried unchecking myflights on/off, removed filter settings and put back on. Had to reboot RB to get it back,
Cheers John
-
ok a little niggle about v3
if you have polar plot on the map and take a screen shot .....on the subsequent image file the polar plot is missing ....
apologies in advance if everyone else has mentioned this .
-
fatkat
rather its mentioned a couple of time, than get missed completely.
As the list grows its hard to keep track of what has been mentioned, maybe we could have a recap of niggles/problems Airnav?
-
Yes, please give us a list of the reported problems, and future options
-
yes each new user is going to find the same "faults " and report them ....
perhaps a list in a "sticky" that people can refferer to ..with solutions if available ...though I can understand any reluctance as it clearly shows problems to prospective purchasers and the other side !
-
This is a beta so issues are expected otherwise it would not be a beta.
We will put an updated list up later.
-
sorry ...it was not a criticism just a suggestion etc
while I'm at it ......
changing the colour of the active track on the selected a/c - happens on the map ok but not in the height plot ....[didn't notice what happened in v2 ]
any suggestions?
-
Thanks Airnav
It will help us all and hopefully stop some re-posting of what has already been said
-
Thanks Airnav for the 3.0,appreciate that it is a Beta, so playing all by ear for the moment, but I agree with some of the comments about fixes/intersections. They do seem to be too numerous, and possibly a mod to be able to differentiate between what I call ''master'' and ''sub-fixes'' might help. Regards
-
In relation to the fixes, I think we don't need those related to the DME distances.
-
Airnav, A tiny one for you, a spelling mistake in the help menus. On the Maps Toolbars help page you have the following:
Resize
1- Hold down your right mouse button
2- Move your move to resize the map as desired
It should of course read move your mouse
-
I lost all data sometime this afternoon as well while I was out.
My Log shows data until 13:48:37 today in the last time field.
When I came back in, my flights was totally blank and had to restart Radarbox. Once I did this, MY log started populating again.
-
Perhaps me and not a bug...
i would like to change the Home name by my call (F6GSG),
in the preferences windows, in the Custom Legend List
i display:
F6GSG,43.7011,3.8468
That is my call and the exact position (available in Home Data panel),
(south of France).
And Nothing ... no display ? (and Home is well switch off)
i try another data, also nothing,
What's wrong ?
in my opinion, it will be better to have for separator the ; caracter as the ,
to be compatible with the Home data Longitude/latitude coordonate).
F6GSG
-
Works for me. Are you sure you have entered the correct position in decimal degrees?
-
And have you turned on Map...Custom Legends?
Rod
-
I bet that's it :-) I'm sure that this is on by default, but that would do the trick!
-
Here is an update. These bugs have been confirmed (replicate them). If you think we have missed something important please give us a gentle nudge, there are lot of posts so its likely we have missed something.
Serious:
Some machines software does not start
Aircraft on map disappearing and returning with zoom
High:
359-000 degrees the vector of an airplane changes a direction for 180 degrees!
Timeout issues on the network causing aircraft to stay there for ages
Full screen and then return does not show map/aircraft
Duplicate Entries of flights in MyLog, required longer timeout or capabilty for user to change timeout
Check route alogrtithm and sometimes wrong routes are being displayed
Range alerts not working
Low
Company combo box not working
Font issue with commas and dots in custom legend
Filter to last ten minutes or one hour in MyLog Missing
No icon to resize interface window shown
Entries of closed maps in windows menu
Error message in preference menu
The 'execute a file' box is always ticked in alerts
text showing the aircraft details to the right of the photo of the aircraft is getting clipped
No up and down icons for Flights
Also the Vista64bit drivers and Too many fixes are being looked at.
-
And have you turned on Map...Custom Legends?
Hi Rod,
I did do so. In the Custom Legend List I write: John Racars,52.3392,5.1924
Nothing happens on the map....
-
John and F6GSG - Can you check in Control Panel, Regional/International settings, that you have the period (full stop) as the decimal separator, and not a comma?
John - I just copied and pasted your legend entry direct into my system, and it displayed correctly - so you have done it right :-)
Rod
-
My map colour scheme that ive exported and saved never seems to load up by default, even though its always the one thats used each time the programe is closed?
James
-
John,
Also check the color you have set in preferences for "Line of Sight" as this is also the color of the custom legends.
-
James - I have that trouble too - a workround is to rename your default scheme as Real Radar - that is the scheme that it seems to want to keep going back to.
Rod
-
John and F6GSG - Can you check in Control Panel, Regional/International settings, that you have the period (full stop) as the decimal separator, and not a comma?
Hi Rod,
You are genius! After doing as you recommanded it is working with me! Thank you for the help.
-
Ok Rod I'll try that - which will overwrite the Real Radar colours? (No big deal) Edit, ive just renamed that one Real Radar2 whilst I was at it.
I tried renaming it default.mcl a few days ago but with no change so hoping this will solve it, thanks.
James
-
Also check the color you have set in preferences for "Line of Sight" as this is also the color of the custom legends.
Hi Allocator,
Thank you! All is working very well. Nice picture!
-
OK John, no problem - top marks to Rod for sorting this out :-)
-
It's a pleasure - but AirNav ought to take this one on board - as far as I know, no-one has to change control panel settings to get their Home position plotted, so we shouldn't need to do it for custom labels :-(
Rod
-
Rod,
We were aware of this early on in this beast of a thread :)
http://www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=2893.msg25854#msg25854
-
Splendid - it's not on your recent bug list, though.
EDIT - or is that the "Font issue with commas and dots in custom legend" item?
Rod
-
The Font issue is the one.
-
My map colour scheme that ive exported and saved never seems to load up by default, even though its always the one thats used each time the programe is closed?
Check the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AirNav Systems\ANRB\1\General\MapColorpath
That's the colour scheme RB will use.

One I raised in January that still appears unfixed on V3.0, looks like Airnav missed adding it to the fix list when doing this version.
http://www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=1928
New aircraft with pink in PT or LK do not download pictures on Airliners.net even when one or more are uploaded to that site.
Todays examples I found were regulars with this problem for me in V2. Ryanair's EI-EBM and JetBlue N635JB and N637JB.
I first picked them up when no pics were on airliners.net, usually as they are delivered from the factory. So I got the pink squares in PT & LK on my navdata. Picked them up again today and it initially says 'downloading photo' followed by 'photo not available'. But there is now photos on Airliners.net of this airframe that I should be able to download.
If it has been missed and is too late to re-add to the list, I will append it to the V4 wishlist tab.
Cheers ACW367
-
Airnav,
A Low priority one that was raised earlier in the thread by another user at post #284 (page 19), that you missed off your list at reply #367
the '*' symbol not appearing in mylog report generator for aircraft picked up for the first time by a user. I also experience this.
-
Here is an update. These bugs have been confirmed (replicate them). If you think we have missed something important please give us a gentle nudge, there are lot of posts so its likely we have missed something.
Serious as far as I'm concerned after spending hours upon hours of entering correct information into database explorer. Only to have it get written over when I receive a signal from that aircraft again when using 3.0 despite having auto-populate turned off.

It's obvious for the military aircraft since those are my focus. It's not so obvious for corporate aircraft which I have corrected and don't log all that often or pays as much attention to.
As I found out upon returning home this weekend. If I turn off the computer I have to hit F8 every time I start it in order to disable requiring digital driver signatures or else my RB won't work.

Here is an update ...
So ... fixing port 30003 isn't on the list?

Hi ACW367,
Problem highlighted in reply #61 of thread below. I believe its going to be a high priority once V3.0 is debugged. I'll add your thread to the ones I have listed in post #61 as the more info they have to work with the better.

I have a question and a suggestion something that could be improved. I'm trying to place my home location more precisely and am also adding my work location to the map, as I sometimes bring my RB with my laptop into work. Why are the Lat/Lon displayed differently on the map (when the mouse pointer is on a specific spot) than what we would input for our location - either home or adding a location? Can this be made to display in the same format.
It would be ideal to be able to point the mouse at a particular location and copy the lat/lon to the preferences.
Mark
-
gentle nudge ......
issue of no polar plot in saved images ...
this is rather annoying when setting up an antena ..so as to compare it with previous position /setting /configuration
I have to use an external program to do this .....I'm certain its not just me that used this facility on version two !
I can confirm that I also suffer from 75% of the listed faults [more likely all but I've not come across them yet !]
this is not a complaint !!!
-
Tarbat
Check the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AirNav Systems\ANRB\1\General\MapColorpath
That's the colour scheme RB will use.
Hello mate, I have checked mine, there is nothing in there after "MapColorpath.
If I right click on MapColorpath and then Modify and enter Default in the Value data field, Will this do the trick.

OK now can confirm Alerts not working 100% for Registrations based alerts. I can confirm I just saw SX-DVY flying over with no alert posted. I can say, thinking about it, the amounts of alerts I get has decreased with v3.0. This is a major issue for me and if its not going to be fixed soon I will definitely go back to version 2.0. I use this feature heavily to alert me to look for a particular aircraft.
Has anyone else got this issue?
I am also having to run in Compatibility mode to get this version of v3.0 running. Related?
Graham
-
I know some of these points have been raised already but my comments on v3.0 Beta as follows...
-There are now far too many fixes that I now have to turn off this feature that previously I liked to have active
-Grid visible columns I would like to be able to order according to my preferences (maybe a feature request rather than a v3.0 observation)
-When moving cursor from the UK over the English Channel local time is -1 hour.
- The zoom back & forward feature would be useful as a 'right click' perhaps even more so than + & -, particularly as this can be done with the + & - keys now
Otherwise so far it all works well & looks good, thanks to all involved in the development.

Just one further point I have just turned on my network flights & zoomed in on LGW, the aircraft on the ground are displaying some strange flight levels for taxying! Please see the attached ss.

Hi all.
Congrats to AirNav for their excellent prog.
I have a problem at the moment in as much as I can only use RB if I load it in each time!
Is this a known bug?
It will run after I have downloaded it, but if I shut the laptop down, when I start it up the prog will not start.
Any ideas
Thanks Malc
-
I seem to be getting a lot of stationery flights. Unless Easyjet are now using Harriers something is amiss.
Also having the problem with flight levels both on the ground & on approach.
-
One of the issues that we were told would addressed in V3.0 - but hasn't been - was correct labelling of the Track and TAS columns in the MyFlights and Network lists.
See www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=1716.0
They are still incorrectly labelled Hdg and IAS. Most RB users will be aware that these aren't the same thing, particularly IAS/TAS.

Hi,
yes same for me, alerts are not working good, (they never did) if i do an alert for an squawk 7000 (EHRD) nothing happens . Reg based or Mode S based also not working well.

Same here alerts not working at all.

Reply to Mark
Once you have your location on the RB map, you can right-click it, and on the menu is the option to set it as your home location - even easier than you asked for :-)
Must admit I've never tried this myself, but I guess it works.
Rod

As some others in this thread, I also has some problems with alerts.
I only get the flight number, but not any info. Just like this.

In earlier versions, I also got information about the flight.
I saw this was mentioned earlier in this thread too.

Tarbat, sorry to be a pain. The ANRB I downloaded was 2007 so do I just go straight to the download of 2009? The pc I bought is a Compacq £499.99 and its 64 bit. My last one was 32 bit. Will this make any differance to the download?.Colin

I transfered my Navdata.db3 file from V2.10 to the new V3.0 - This had 7771 records in it, I ran it last night for about 1.30 hrs and now I only have 6621 records. Whats going on here, am I missing something, thought it should be adding records, not taking them away.

Since down loading the new update I am getting a broken purle line flying along rather than an aircraft ? It isnearly always the nearest aircraft to me, with all the others showing as normal. Is there a something I have done which I shouldn't have ? I would be grateful for any help in laymans terms.

Hi All,
It is difficult to believe and I take the risk that you all explain me for fool. But I would like to you report:
This evening I started to uninstall all previous versions of RB, the last new version 3.0 include. There after I made a new install of 3.0 and, ofcourse, restored my backups op Logo's, MyLog.db3 and NavData.db3.
I start the program and all looks working without any problem and smooth.
I look at the map where the flight are enroute. There was also KLM flight 553 from EHAM to HECA on the map. This aircraft, B777 PH-BQN, was around the Dutch-German border.
Then, suddenly, I saw this:
the flightid KLM553 changed into KLM461 for a second, there after in KLM553, there after in KLM461 and there after again in KLM553. There after this aircraft disappeared from my screen because it was then out of my area of reception. This all happend in a some seconds.
Hard to believe, but true! Anyone else saw things like this?
-
Later on this evening I saw again a wrong flight info on the map.
KLM1632 gives EHAM-ENGM as route-information.
Should be (and also correct in the RB Route database)
LIMC-EHAM.
Now I hope support is totally known my problems of the last week I reported. I will stop this now and will wait and see or, and when, the problems are solved.
As said before, it is incomprehensible for me why this was not in presume versions of RB; there was all going "normal" as far as I could see...

To rod,
About F6GSG=HOME location,

F6GSG - I hope it hasn't messed up other things, like spreadsheets, too!
AirNav have this listed as a bug to fix, though only with low priority. For now, you will have to decide whether your PCR 1500 is more important than custom legends!

Here is an update. These bugs have been confirmed (replicate them).
Serious:
Some machines software does not start
In my excitement i downloaded the upgrade to find that I also suffered the incompatibility problem (ie radarbox completely unusable!) - I then tried the full beta install - still broken.
Thanks to Spaice (very many thanks!) the change to windows 98/Me compatibility quickly had me back up and running. However I had to read 28 pages of this thread and would like to suggest that support post a sticky about the beta to advise users to use the full install (as it goes by default into a new directory) to confirm operation and then (perhaps) apply the upgrade.
I saw a post (among many) that support requested all posts into this thread but I really do think that for the end users' benefit a new (sticky) post will prevent many users encountering a broken install (and the bad feeling that leaves)
just my thoughts.

This is an issue with Beta3 which will be fixed when the beta update is released.

As mentioned this is a known issue. Will be glad to see it fixed as it kind of defeats the purpose of the RB in identifying what is there. In the meantime when you see the broken purple line, zoom in the map and back out again and the aircraft details should appear. You may be surprised at the number of 'missing' aircraft which suddenly 'reappear'. A pure pain.

I have tested a fix for this bug and it does work although I don't think it will be a temporary patch and with be rolled in to the next beta 3 update.

Hi all.
Congrats to AirNav for their excellent prog.
I have a problem at the moment in as much as I can only use RB if I load it in each time!
Is this a known bug?
It will run after I have downloaded it, but if I shut the laptop down, when I start it up the prog will not start.
Thanks Malc
Hi Malc have got the same problem. Tried various combinations of uninstall reinstall but cannot get v3.0 to start after program is closed.. Back to v2.01 for now. Maybe have to go into registry and completely remove everything from AirNav and start again. Any ideas out there? Cheers Pete

Hi Pete,
Try loading the programme as instructed in FAQ
www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=1570.0
This works for me, at the moment.

Just installed, well been trying for the last hour and finally got my XP machine to run it in 89/ME compatibility mode
Was dissapointed not to see the ability to remove the METAR / TAF boxes from Smart view that I raised a few months ago

F6GSG Airnav are aware of the alerts issue with v3 beta. It's in their high priority fix list.
I have gone back to 2.01.
V3 Beta is too flakey for me at the moment. It needs a major update!
The closed beta test obviously didn't work!

i would agree with you the closed beta was no good, i was very surprised at the outcome.
but there's a hell of a lot of effort being put in by forum members at the moment, in the beta testing.
and i know airnav have said its what they want, it should work out for the best in the end up.
