As a reminder, below V3.0 changes/new features and download links.

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.

We have about 20 problems reported. The 3 major ones are now corrected.
The remaining are easier to correct and we will be working on them during the next 3 days. After that we plan to send the .exe to the user that reported some of those problems - once we get a green light from all of them we will have the new .exe available to the public.

We want to have some good news by July 2nd.

Can I suggest that a date for the .EXE be added to the download links above, along with any patch Version detail - patch1    for instance, so users can see if there is a newer version of the Beta.

Thanks.

Updated for reply below:-

I was thinking of the Public Beta and it's build date - NOT all the restricted pool Beta versions!!!

Jgrloit: we would do that but since there are external factors that do not depend on us (pre-testing done by users that complained) we can't. We want to send the new .exe to those users this Tuesday - we will keep this thread informed on what's going on.

A very minor bug, on the myflights list you have the red outline to show which square your cursor is on.  If you have a flight that doesn't autopopulate for example if you are not connected to internet. On the blank line in the myflights list the red cursor outline disappears on the empty silhouette column.  It appears in all other columns and on silhouettes of populated aircraft.

I do not know if this is possible but when you click a spot and drag the courser and instead of moving the map it shows the bearing and a line from where you clicked to the current mouse position (like a real radar at ATC would)?

How long have to left the software loading before giving up?  The new install seems to take a while to check all the files on first run.

Also, there was no need to unistall your previous version of RB, as V3.0 Beta installs into a totally separate directory - although with Vista, I'm not too sure what it does!

Glad I skipped the whole Vista thing!

Don't know whether it's already reported or not. But I noticed, that the "StartPosition" and "EndPosition" information in the "Flights for selected Aircraft" section of MyLog is "useless" since I changed to the v3.0 Beta version.

The following error occurs: Only the Latitude position seems to be correct. The Longitude position is filled with the Data of the latitude position.

I hope the Bug with the "growing" aircraft trail without an AC symbol (Plane or square) on the top of it is also a known problem. ;-)

A Buglist at the beginning of this threat might be a good idea, because it may prevent the double-posting of already know problems.

For Airnav.   This bug seems to have been introduced sometime between 14th and 17th June - so maybe at the end of the closed beta period.

Vista will install were ever you want it to as long as you don't let it do it itself. When you are asked during install select for example d:\airnav_2009_beta.

This works absolutely fine here

Menu freezes - during closed Beta I discovered with the team that using a remote desktop software to access your ANRB will cause the menu freeze problems. The development team are aware of this and hopefully sorting out.
I can repeat this error using LogMeIn and VNC remote access software but i have not tried Teamviewer which I know a lot of you use.

swadeep,

The software runs fine with Vista64bit. If you mean the drivers are not being allowed to be installed on it then there are ways round this.

We are working with Microsoft to get the drivers certified.

The pull downs freeze in both the remote acces screen and on the live PC.
I associated it with the application being minimised as well. Worth a try maybe using TeamViewer fixes the problem. Would be nice to know.

Hi John

Its the file,filters,tools,maps,help, etc, they just freeze, and the only way to get them to work is restart Airnav, then after a short while they stop working.

Hi all
I have downloaded the beta (3) version but when i click on the (new) desktop icon to run the program the Microsoft warning kicks in saying that RB has detected problems and needs to close, with the usual option for sending the report.  When i downloaded the upgrade to version 3 and then try and run it a window pops up and says that the RB.DLL is missing and cannot start but to try re-installing the software may help. I am using Xp service pack 3 and the version 2 runs fine and always has done.  Any suggestions?????

Yeah i downloaded my current version a while ago   I have been using RB for just over a year now, i find it brilliant. Maybe some else comes across the same problem as more people download the newer version and maybe a fix can be found, but in the meantime i can still enjoy the current version.
Thanks for you help and replies anyway.

I noticed a further strange thing:

Under preferences I unchecked the "Auto-Populate Aircraft Data" feature, but kept the "download photo" feature aktive. After that, I manually changed the false entry of the SIA 9V-SKH A380 in the "NavData" Database. Then I have manually corrected the MyLog entry of the mentioned aircraft. Finally I removed the downloaded 9V-SKH pictures of the "stored" B744 AC from the photo directory.

And now it comes: Today, after tracking the 9V-SKH in flight, the MyLog entry was changed back to the false B744 data, while the NavData DB entry is still correct. Is it possible, that the "Photo download" feature is somehow messing with the MyLog entries?

Is this a known problem?

Let's see what happens if I don't delete the pictures of the earlier B744 9V-SKH.

MyLog is a historic record of what you have picked up using your antenna.  If you have changed the details of 9V-SKH using DataBase Explorer, this will not affect waht you see in MyLog for past contacts, but it should correct it for new contacts.

As far as I'm aware, all my A380's have autopopulated correctly without any manual edits.

OK, I'm with you now :-)

I checked 9V-SKH using Database Explorer and it showed the incorrect details for the B747, so this is what I did:

- Manual update using DataBase Exploer putting in the correct details for 9V-SKH

- Deleted the photo link details in DataBase Explorer too in case these were wrong too.

- Opened MyLog and searched for 9V-SKH - wrong details displayed.

- Deleted the wrong details in MyLog by clicking on the fields and selecting delete

- Used MyLog Populate and the correct details are now entered automatically into the blank record fields for 9V-SKH.

Allocator,

The 9V-SKH is missing in your list. Try out to find the 9V-SKH in your MyLog.  your At first the 9V-SKH was tracked as B744 of an unknown Airline. I manually changed it at all positions. Especially in the MyLog Database.

Screenshot of my tracked A380 AC:
 (http://i192.photobucket.com/albums/z157/neroon79/Airnav%20RADAR%20Box/MyLogA380Screenshot.jpg)

Well, we did the same. But after tracking the 9V-SKH again (with activated photo download feature) , the false B744 data is back again. But only in MyLog. This time I leave the false 9V-SKH pictures where they are and see what happens now...

Hopefully the SKH is servicing the late SIA flight from LHR to SIN later this evening (night).

I find out about the 9V-SKH problem by using this site: http://plane.spottingworld.com/A380_production_list

According to this list the SKH was delivered before the SKG. Futher i was wayting for SIA318 but somehow it didn't occur. I got suspicious and did some
recherche. The rest is history.

Edit:  OK read you posts thanks.

You will also need to delete the 2 incorrect 9V-SKH photos in the /Photos directory, as they won't be overwritten by autopoulate and you will be stuck with the old pictures.  These are:

Andy, yes, thats where I am now, except that I've now deleted the 2 incorrect thumbnails so hopefully I will get a correct photo autopopulate next time I get 9v-SKH.

I wonder if this is reuse of the registration, or did GAS AND airliners.net have the wrong details, as the data will have come from both?

Looks like the reg of 9V-SKH has been used before on the B744. What I have done is downloaded the photo's I want from Airliners, Then make the link from my hard drive, after resizing of cause.

I did, and figured out that I have done it completely the same way you did.

However, i would have liked :

1) a VCR style, to review my recorder traffic

2) the airways name

3) the real weather impressed on the map

I hope on the next version .. ;-)

Just to keep our users updated. Development on V3.0 Beta patch continues. Unfortunately it will be impossible to release it before July 5th as we need to wait for several users feedback on some corrected items. Some good news to follow.

There is also items still being changed within the Navdata File, I now this as I mostly put XXX in Fields PT/LK/PT2/LK2 these are being changed by "Untitled" or "---". This has been discussed before. Have a look at the attachement.

No - same results here.

It's similar to the issue with military aircraft coming up with completely unrelated photos, although in that case it's even worse as even the thumbnails aren't always correct.

See www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=2507.msg27267#msg27267

The good news is that AirNav are committed to resolving the issue and, I'm given to understand, are currently looking at spending money on an external resource to straighten out the photo/type details issue once and for all.

I don't know what the timescale is for this.

Is any work going on to fix dual monitor operations ? This was a problem with 2.0.
Window positions are wrong, restoration of windows is problematic.
Help About centres on the other monitor when it shows up.
Having a dual display is convenient - you can stretch the app to have most columns listed on the left monitor as well as have the map up on the right hand monitor.

On the dual monitor setup, I have an ATI video card which supports 2 monitors, both set to 1600x1200 resolution, with the desktop extended across them both, effectively 3200x1200.
I want to display the data screen on the left hand and the radar map on the right.
I hit the Restore Down icon, and then drag the bottom right corner of the window to the bottom right of the right ahnd monitor. Then with a bit of tweaking, I get the data colum listing Changed, Tracked, Sttatus, Mode S etc. to show on the left monitor, and the map on the right.
If I exit the program and launch it again, it does not restore the window to these positions.
If I hit Help About (with the mouse in the left monitor at the menu bar), the about window shows up on the right monitor, instead of the left, or centered as one would expect.
Also, I'd be able to open a separate map window on the right monitor.

I have simple needs,I only want to see aircraft on the screen that i can actualy see from my garden.I only have airnav running (on a laptop in the garden) when i am in the garden.I have used airnav since feb 09 and it has been supurb,V3 promised some excellent advantages (flybe flight numbers etc).I have lost confidence in V3 because a lot of aircraft i can see in the overhead (Easy,ryanair ect ) are appearing on the list but with no position detail.Sometimes a trail will migrate across the screen with no aircaft attatched ! The extra sensitivity although true is off little interest to me and i now put the aerial on the floor to restrict "mylog" to 15 or so.Do i wait for a fix to V3 to make these aircraft reappear or reload V2 ?

You can re-load v2.

Or just move the map slightly in v3 to make the aircraft re-appear.  In fact what I do is click on the Home button if I'm at home, or the Airport Locate button if I'm at an airport, and that makes them re-appear.

It's a beta, so expect some problems.

Not actually a bug, but something I have asked for a couple of times in the past.

Please could we have smaller increments when zooming in and out on a map. Or better still, have user selectable increments. For precise use, I find the default increments too course and need to be finer.

Many thanks

A bug to be fixed in v3 please?

Example attached, B752 showing on the map at FL380, but no altitude in the MyFlights list.

can't find this one in the list so...

map locks up (no aircraft moving) close the map, re-open the map, all you get is the aircraft and info, no background info, i.e coastlines, VOR's airports etc.

close the map several times still the same.

Move the map to somewhere completely different (I use Dubai) everything is then OK. Press Home and we are back to normal?

Nothing at all wrong with my sense of humour, as anybody who knows me will testify.

However, look at it from my point of view.... I asked, when the full version was likely to be released? (Nothing more and nothing less)

In reply I got shot down from all sides by people telling me to stop hassling AirNav as I was making their task harder (err - I wasnt). To stop making unrealistic demands (again I wasnt), and my personal favourite - Dont shout demands at the team (wtf?).

I was directing my query at AirNav - nobody else. They havent seen fit to reply. Fine, simply the fact that there is going to be a version 3 is good news, and I will happily wait a week, a year or a decade for it to arrive.

However, I dont think simply asking a straight forward question about the time scale was quite the crime some saw it as. However I seem to be in a group of one with that assumption - so I will walk away with my tail between my legs, and learn my lesson for the future (consider any question asked on here, very carefully to make sure it could not some how - however slightly - to be seen as an attack against Air Nav... so as to avoid the wrath of the masses)

I do have a life away from aircraft, a very healthy one. Therefore I am not really all that bothered about this whole issue, or indeed when or if I will ever update to V3 of the software (it already does all I need it to, and more, with V2). However, as you may have guessed, it does upset me when people lay into me for no real reason.

Quote from: 9M-ISJ

I do have a life away from aircraft, a very healthy one. Therefore I am not really all that bothered about this whole issue, or indeed when or if I will ever update to V3 of the software (it already does all I need it to, and more, with V2). However, as you may have guessed, it does upset me when people lay into me for no real reason.

Pear Shaped of Heathrow

I don't really think that anybody was having a go at you, but I think that some of the guys here were remembering the 'punch up' that was almost caused the other week when a couple of guys tried to get AirNav to name a date for the V2.1 beta release (as it was), then gave them grief for it not appearing on that date, then getting even more upset when it was named V3.0.

Keep smiling, we're all coming from the same direction here and I'm sure that there was no intent to give you a hard time.

Hopefully, we won't have to wait a decade :-)

Hi HMB851X/pjm,

Airnav are aware of this. Try changing the compatability to Window 98/ME and it should run OK.

9M-ISJ,

We understand your point of view but its best for us when we are in beta test mode that we shouldn't place a specfic date for a full release as we want to get all the bugs caught (not possible in closed beta testing) and also take on suggestions.

If it takes longer that way we see it as the better as less likely any bugs will get through.

Maybe you shouldn't even quote dates for releasing Beta versions as most of the time they cannot be met...not a criticism you understand! :-)

Another variation on a theme here...not sure if its been reported in v3 Beta but it is present in v2.10 Beta;

Alerts: We know the Alerts warning is a bit crook and has been acknowledged but something that is probably related is every time I start the app the 'Execute a file' checkbox is ticked. I can untick it but then after I close and restart the app it defaults to checked.

One for the hit list maybe?

Kind regards,

swadeep,

The software runs fine with Vista64bit. If you mean the drivers are not being allowed to be installed on it then there are ways round this.

We are working with Microsoft to get the drivers certified.

Hi. I have installed the version 3 but when i run it it just crashes. I will try set the compability to windows me etc. Anyway are there drivers available yet for vista 64bit. sorry but i am confused? I assume i cant use the drivers from the cd right??

I have Radar Box set up on 3 computers , Upgraded with no problems to 3.0 Beta on both my Vista and XP desktop computers.
I also have a netbook , I tried the upgrade and the complete install but i just kept getting that microsoft error message all the time , and to my dissapointment the older version wouldnt work either.
Fortunately i was able top do a system restore and get my netbook back to its former glory complete with RB 2009 working again.
I am going on holiday soon and want to take my netbook away with me for the first
time , I would like to upgrade or install but affraid if i try it wont work again.
I would rather have the older version that works than 3.0 beta that i cant get to install.
Would i be right in thinking if i download and right click on Airnav logo ,properties ,windows me ,it would then work ,any help appreciated.

Hello Jollygreen/Dudbaker

Does the patch show as ANRB.EX_
If it does you have to delete the underscore at the end and replace it with an E
so it looks like ANRB.EXE then it will work:-)

Copy your old ANRB.exe to a safe file first then cut and paste the new one in

Was there a specific Beta forum, as if there was I am not on it as far as I know. I just raised a question about duplicates in MyLog and flights disappearings from the 'radar' screen.

All I am trying to do is get the patch and it is not working for me as I cannot see where the new download has gone.

If I have to wait a few days for it to be released to non Beta testers, as I am away from tomorrow as a show in Somerset,so be it.

Question is then,  if I was not a Beta tester in the first place, why did I get the E:mail re the patch.

All said, where I live AirNav has made a great difference to my spotting as I now have managed to add close to 1800 frames due to living under several major flight paths out of Europe  to Southern Europe, USA & Canada. Excellant piece of kit and AirNav, keep up the good work!!

Airnav can't win here, they were criticised for not having a closed beta thread, they put that right but now they seem to have offended some members in the process.

For those not involved it will be worth the wait, they have been listening and there are some excellent additions.

Hi all,


Someone asked for the history to appear in myflights but I can't seem to find the post that refers to it. Below is a screenshot from the beta patch I'm running, I thought it my invoke some feedback. Its a nice feature but my preferance would be to have it selectable on/off, which at the moment it isn't. It shows the history of the flight selected.

What do you think?

Hi all,


Someone asked for the history to appear in myflights but I can't seem to find the post that refers to it. Below is a screenshot from the beta patch I'm running, I thought it my invoke some feedback. Its a nice feature but my preferance would be to have it selectable on/off, which at the moment it isn't. It shows the history of the flight selected.

What do you think?

Cheers John

What do I think?

I don't have enough screen real estate to show aircraft in MyFlights as it stands - shame really as I have 2 x 19" Eizo TFT monitors running 1280 x 1024 - that's an awful lot of wasted screen space that I can't use with the app in its current configuration...:-(

This information is shown in MyLog anyway - is it really needed here also?

Please tell me Rod is correct and it can at least be turned off?

Something I suggested many months ago (and today also:-) would be a function to right-click on an aircraft either on the radar screen or in the list to have a pop-up menu appear (much like the standard Windows feature) where a selection of options would appear including one called 'History' that would open up to show the flight history.

See here; http://www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=2885.msg28252#msg28252

As Rod says, it can be turned off, so it's not a problem.

I have it turned ON, its a very useful way of seeing the last three routes that an aircraft has recently been flying.

There are more right-click options in the latest beta:

Hi, i used the upgrade from v2 to 3 and get this windows message.

"ANRB.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience."

So i tried the full install and its exactly the same, the second you double click the exe it comes up with this message.

Tried re-booting but still the same.

I'm running xp

Gonna put v2 back, hope that will work again

Tarbat,

Having looked at your screen above re turning off and on the 'show flight history', I don't seem to have that feature. When I go into the Tools menu  from the Map screen it shows all the same subjects as yours including 'show photo details' but nothing to do with 'show flight history' which is the subject directly below 'show flight details' on your screen or am I using the wrong Tools menu.

Ian - this option is only available on the very latest Beta version, available only to the closed group of testers.

Unless you are in that group, I'm afraid you'll have to wait until it's released. We're still fighting the last remaining gremlins!

Marc - that sort of answers your question too - some of these gremlins are dogged little things.

Question/Issue on Altitude - something seen on V2 and V3 Beta.

Why do some get logged in MyLog with leading zeros, and some that don't

Example, I have Start Altitude of 00095 on 19/06/09 for D-ABIM then 20 on 19/6/09, and then on 14/7/09 I have this as 01100.

Then in MyFlights, if I filter on Altitude < 5000, I get everthing, and just worked out that that needs to be < 05000, but in the Altitude field in MyFlights they don't have a leading zero.

I would assume Altitude is logged in the database as a numeric field, so should be fairly straight forward to program this, and any Altitude to have 'ToNum' applied to it, regardless of what comes from the ADSB info.

Any reason why this is the case?

It was a compromise when the database was first designed.  All fields were originally defined as TEXT, which was less than ideal.  I recommended that fields were re-defined to something more suitable, but by then most of the programming had already been done based on TEXT fields.  So VARCHAR was the best compromise which I implemented on behalf of Airnav.

The patches are part of the closed beta testing.  These versions of the software are experimental and are aimed at solving particular issues and are therefore not suitable for general release.

All beta software is test software, but the patches are experimental software.

Found a bit of a bug tho but i dont know if it was in v2 also.

When selecting to filter for my local airport EGNX at top of screen (to just view flights to and from EGNX)

When de-selecting for a minute i noticed a flight from KSDF via KPHL to EGNX but it wont show when the airport filter is on.

So i think a bit of code needs tweeking to check for the filter airport if there is an airport via in the flight details too.
Hope you get what i mean.

Not sure if its been mentioned before.
Rich.

You can start Vista 64bit without requiring signed drivers by:

Restart your machine. Press F8 when windows begins to load and choose the Windows Vista—“Disable Driver Signature Enforcement”
Option, then install the drivers and it should work fine.

What about an enhancement to SmartView to allow inputting of Mode-S details along with Callsigns?

I have copied & pasted all of the Registrations I have in Alerts into SmartView and it is very handy to hear an Alert and quickly glance at the SmartView tab to see if it is being picked up as was the case with G-VLCN - this afternoon.

In Alerts I also use wildcarded 43C* and AE* / AD* to alert me to RAF & USAF aircraft and it would be good to see them listed in SmartView because most of them don't appear on the map due to no ADS-B positioning information so the ability to quickly view any pertinent information on the target would be a good thing.

Would anybody else find this a handy feature to have?

Hopefully one for the list Terre!

A very small change that I would like to see around the emailing of Logs...

When the email arrives it is from the Users Name.

However when I receive an email from the Alert feature it is from RadarBox 2009 whatever-version-you-are-running

For me anyway I would like to standardise the sending email address to be constant and be listed as the program name instead of the user name.

When I look for emails from RB it does not register that I should also be looking for emails from myself!

Maybe change this to show the same sending email address as Alerts or make it configurable?

The reason I ask is because I have various automated tasks running here and on remote sites from which I receive updates/warnings/status emails etc. and without exception I am able to configure the sending address to make it easy to determine at a glance where the email is from and simplify setting up Rules to deal with them.

A minor change I know but it would work well for me - anyone?

Thanks & regards,

Hi Rich,

Well that's a 100% increase in the number of users who would find this useful :-)

I suspect that RB is using the User Name set in Preferences/Home Station Data for the senders name but as I said earlier the email Log function doesn't so it also seems a bit odd that there is not continuity across the email functions within the app?

Here's hoping...
