I have noticed that there is a problem for FR24 when one chosen receiver looses contact and another receiver has to take over.
As an example SK1245 landes at Aarhus (AAR) and T-EKAH7 follows it all the way on approach to landing and then to parking at stand no. 2.

If however any other receiver is used on approach then they will loose contact before landing. Now T-EKAH7 should be able to take over, but that doesn't happen. The aircraft is not tracked after landing.
It seems as if FR24 takes too long to recognize the loss of contact. For aircraft in the cruise at high altitude this is seldom noticeable as FR24 continue to draw a track and will eventually 'give up' on the chosen receiver and switch to a better option.
