There's ADS-B receivers the size of a USB stick - because some are USB sticks and available for 50 bucks on Amazon.
- firesteelrain 1y agoNo, but if ADS-B is off then its not squawking unless its got like Mode-3 or Mode-S then maybe MLAT can be used.
- jjwiseman 1y agoJust to be specific, PAT25 seems to have been using Mode C for an earlier portion of its flight and Mode S for the later portion.
