The unit in question does not just use ADS-B type info, reading a write up on it in a GA mag this month, there is some sort of internet tie up and you can get position info on all squawking aeroplanes within line of sight of the aerial.
Would you like to explain how that works then? If I can get position info over the Internet, why would I need a radio receiver?

The govt can have a lot of control over that price of certification.
It certainly can Ferris. And if it subsidises ADS-B for GA in the UK, I'll eat my GTX330
