Hi Mike.

Can you delete post #1 in this thread, as i have tried about four times but it deletes the hole thread.

I am guessing rob is talking about the FAA hex codes.

Delete this message if you can fix this thread, thanks Speedy

They are 'dummy' hexcodes generated by the system as FAA does not provide hexcodes or registrations. Any flight passing through one of our radarboxes will pick up the data and continue to display this, but the 7-digit hexcodes are just random info generated by the database for all other flights.

Sorry to ask - but what is a 7 digit hex code?

Thanks
