Radar at Hamburg - sometimes on - sometimes not

[Uhlhorn]

Oh, I read it! But I didn’t find it on first pass. You should bring some more structure into your text. You can make a section only for users who want to provide data to FR24.

Example:

How can I contribute to flightradar24.com?

• Buy a receiver (see below)
• Bring it to work
• Contact us, you will get some scripts and a documentation

Type of Receiver:
• SBS-1
• …

Where to buy:

UK
• Kinetic-avionics.co.uk - Kinetic Avionics is the producer of the SBS-1 »
• Hamradio.co.uk - You can buy the SBS-1 at this store »
• …

Germany
• Wimo.de - Sells both the SBS-1 and a lot of good parts useful for setting up a radar. Cables, adaptors, antennas and such »
• …

USA
• Airnavsystems.com - Airnav Systems is the producer of the Airnav radarbox »


But it is only a suggestion. ;-)

To Anmer.
I think you could have used less time if you just had copied the document to Ulhorn's site instead of being offended and used a lot of time writing several comments.

I have spent hundreds of hours writing Guides for those who want to use a ModeS receiver and related software. I do not get paid and, in my opinion, asking readers to register on Radarspotters for free and downloading the Guides is not too much to ask. It also allows us to communicate changes and announce new Guides.

The reason for writing the Guides is to provide answers to repeated questions and save time. I was not offended and now others know where to find the Guides.

But many visitors don't understand how much effort and resource is needed to run a Forum and online sites like FR24. They want everything for nothing and complain if they have to find something out for themselves. I had to research the market myself and didn't complain.

Oh yes, it's a greate work! I don't want to make it smaller than it is (sorry for my English). But can't You put the guide on a server what is free accessible? So You may use the dropbox. It's very easy and it's free.

You can use this referral and You will get additional 250 Mbyte online space for free. (Normaly I too, but I have reached my maximum some days ago)

https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTIwNzc0Mjk

After installing and make an account You can put the file into the public folder and copy a download link via right mouse click. It's so easy!

2 GByte is free, you can get up to 10 GByte for free with referrals. More space will cost some money.

But can't You put the guide on a server what is free accessible?

It's already on a server that's freely accessible from a forum that's dedicated to the virtual radarspotting hobby.

http://radarspotters.eu/forum/index.php

If you can't be bothered to register, that's your problem.

Maybe you're just spamming dropbox.com?

I'm not continuing this debate.

Radar spoting isn't my hobby! But I am a pilot and so I'm intrested a little bit in it. And I wanted to help the community to close the hole around EDDH (Hamburg). But I don't want to spent more time then necessary for this.

So, okay. I have to do other things. Sorry! Bye!
