Not always getting alerts
« on: October 25, 2009, 05:49:21 PM »
Occasionally I do not get alerted for aircraft that are on my alert list.  Just watched UAE9911 land at KTOL via Radarbox, and it is on my alert list.  It never triggered, and I tracked it all the way to the ground.  Checked my alert list again, everything looks OK.  Flight ID box is checked, that flight number is on my list.  Seems to work fine for registration alerts.

I was not getting flights from the network (my choice at the time), does that have anything to do with it?

Yes, I Agree, This Has Been Happening To Be Recently Too, I always have it on when the aircraft is within 10 nm of my location, but it does not trigger on to alert me?.
Sorry I could not help, as I have the same problem.

I have the same issue with B742's.  Correctly entered into the system but rarely flag up despite being seen overhead as CKS / SOO flights.

I rely upon the alert system and was the main reason for using RB.  I'm using V2.01

I have no ideas as what to do?

Anyone?

Put each squawk code on a new line (press enter), and make sure there's not a new line (enter) after the last squawk code.

Squawk alerts don't work in any of the 3.x Betas. It's a bug.
