Take your rant someplace else, Binghi.

You cannot even make good argument with the Ryan gear.....all that money and only a 180 seconds of warning. A garden variety non TSOd ADS-B Rx unit is good for VHF line of sight..
....just like your own personal SSR[/drift]
OZBUSDRIVER, as has been pointed out before, repeatedly, there are many different traffic devices out there. Here's one, again...

"...SkyWatch monitors the airspace around an aircraft and indicates where to look for nearby transponder-equipped aircraft that may pose a collision threat — providing the “big picture” in traffic awareness at a fraction of the cost of TCAS. After receiving replies to its Mode C type interrogations, the SkyWatch system computes the responding aircraft’s range, bearing, relative altitude and closure rate — predicting potential traffic conflicts within an eleven mile range. Aural traffic alerts are annunciated through the aircraft’s existing audio system, and visual targets are displayed using TCAS-like symbols..."

L-3 Communications -> Products & Services -> SkyWatch Collision Avoidance Systems

...and OZBUSDRIVER, if yer concerned about thread drift then ah suggest yer take it up with The Chaser. That's the one ah were replying to around about post #123, and reference my prior comments; a close look-see at some of The Chaser claims about ADS-B shows one who is expert at spruiking the bull..
