Most Hawks don't have Mode S, so there are no transmissions for RadarBox to pick up.

That may change in due course.

In answer to your question Yes and No.

UK mil do have mode-s but don't give out positional data.

If you do a search in mylog - quickfilter as displayed in attatched jpg it will display any UK mil you have picked up.

HTH Cheers John

edit the search is for 43C* its not very clear in the jpg
