How about:-

TAS – “Traffic Traffic” with no azimuth or intuitive clues (as there is no positional azimuth to rely on i.e. no accurate azimuth display), be it buzzer or generic bitching betty!

Verses’

ADS-B – “Traffic, left 10 o’clock, 3 miles, 800feet above, descending” (and only tells you about traffic that has a good chance of actually hitting you because it has accurate azimuth and closing algorithms in both vertical and azimuth fields)

Add a FLARM input - could also be the same aerial input as they are close freq's - TBA - even if not combined, a separate FLARM input sitting on the glare shield (and plugged in), and gliders are visible also (albeit at closer range)

Next!
