Ground Transmitters?
« on: January 25, 2014, 09:28:59 PM »
I have been getting "Ground Transmitters" showing up in "myflights" lately?

What exactly is a ground transmitter?

YZTX2B

Depending on what they are, is it even possible to have a logo for them?

The are vehicles operating on the airport, ops Vehicles, busses, catering vehicles, airline vehicles, steps etc.  Vehicles on the airport have transponders fitted to show their position on the field.
