I always have thought that a ModeS-code was unique.

When they are correct, they are.

The issue of 'crossed' flight ID's has been noted in Auckland, New Zealand on many occasions as well.  It seems to occur when the hex code of 2 different aircraft are similar (i.e. only a few digits apart).  Unlike the above replies - it is most certainly not the aircraft using the wrong hex code.  According to a local aircraft engineer, the hex code is set in the avionics bay of an airliner and cannot be changed by the crew.  It does appear to be a problem with the software where the flight ID is transposed to the wrong aircraft.  I am using version 3.01B and am hoping it will be resolved in 3.02.

Hi All,

Thank you all for your reactions! It is clear to me now what the cause of problems like I showed to you can be.

This is intriguing, and not something I have personal experience of.

Could you provide a couple of examples of what you have described ?

Probably caused by not being able to parity check the transmissions, and bit-errors causing wrong hex-codes to be received.  See:

Allocator, I have down loaded the outlines on the above website but they dont appear on the ANRB when I put it on. Im running it on my laptop on Vista and 64 bit(dont know if that makes any difference?) Colin.

Colin, in which folder did you install ANRB?  If you installed in C:\Program Files, then you'll need to put the outlines in Vista's Virtual Store.

Its been a beta testing, the last final version had some issues (which is good they were caught) and hence we are fixing them as we type.

Hi Support,

Are problems like you can see below also been fixed? As you can see the given route-information can not be correct.

Exemples like this I see verry much, and every time when I am running RadarBox.....

For your information: the network was switched off all the time!



OMG! 334 Myflights? :O

Here's a screenshot of 2 dupe flight ID's.  In past experience it has happened when the Hex code of the 2 aircraft is similar.  In this case this is not the case....

This was never a problem in version 2.  I am hoping it will be resolved with the new version when it does come out.
