Hi,

anyone can share information about the ability of the Sentry Plus ADS-B Receiver being able to receive signals in the B787 cockpit?
I had a Bad Elf GPS unit and could only receive signals by installing it near the cockpit overhead escape hatch.
on the glare shield or side windows there was no signal sufficient enough to make it work.
anyone had info on this?
B787 all cockpit windows are AC Electrical heated which tend to block ADS-B signals
Tnx in advance

The 787 crews at my carrier (or at least it was before I retired) all Mount their Bad Elves at the overhead escape hatch.
