[ML-General] Do we have any pilots?

[david]

Sitting in the kitchen I saw tons of aircraft out at Memphis.  The Mode 
S is a bit complicated so I don't know how to answer that properly.  
Basically, if they have ads-b out, then the mode s can show up.  There 
is some talk by the FAA that all 978 and 1090(ES) data will soon be 
broadcast continually.  Well, once per second, anyway.

This is with the 2832 modules and 820T.
