  3. Hi, just giving mastodon a try! Will be looking in the next weeks, if there is interesting stuff going on or if someone is interested in my work/interests in science, vintage computers or avionics. Feel free to check out my videos on UK made avionics being cutting edge technology in its day:

  8. Aircraft and glider transponder codes - FAA gotcha.

    I have not yet received my glider registration from the FAA (any day now, lol!), but they have assigned a transponder code for the N-number I have reserved. (see first screenshot)

    To configure my avionics, I need to load this transponder code into the device.

    FLARM wants it as a 24-bit hexadecimal value. (Each hexadecimal value is 4 bits in binary...so it's going to be a six-character code...but my code is not six characters.)

    Hmmmm, that number the FAA gave me just doesn't seem correct.

    I then called up a known, long-registered aircraft to compare their transponder code. (2nd screenshot)

    Surprise! The transponder code I was given was in octal, but not labeled as such. OK, convert to hexadecimal and now everything makes sense.

    Onward!

    Crikey! How best should we exploit this knowledge? Don't make interfaces with green-for-good? Use blue instead? Or is there a shade of turquoise that's a safe bet? Or have I got the wrong end of the string?
