GT is indeed GlenTanner. Not sure why we've been assigned that one, when the Omarama airfield (NZOA?) is at the foot of the mountain, but Mt Cook is quite distant. Not a complaint, just curious.
Also, I noticed an HK (Hokitika?) station getting massive range: Nicely illustrating the points being made about "elevation vs coastal." Oh, and what is "EST-1" (or similar)? That too shows some major range.
Anyway, sorry for the protracted delay in getting our ADS-B online, and I hope it stays active for a longer period than last time. (Alas, no, it still hasn't been moved to it's ultimate summit location... We'll get there.)

Another question: The FR24 receiver status page shows RADAR CODE: F-NZUK1 despite the station supposedly being F-NZGT1. Either of these codes are alternately displayed when aircraft are detected.
Should the F-NZUK1 code be edited/amended to read F-NZGT1 and, if so, how is it done?

flightradar24scrrenshotjumbo.jpg Happy New Year. Silly question, but what is the difference between the "T" and "F" prefixes?
I applied to become a FR24 host back in March 2014, I didn't hear anything until late November when I got an email "Action Required - Hosting Flightradar24 ADS-B Equipment - Second Step"
So from mid December, I have been a host. One of my proudest moments is when I saw the FR24 box flickering, I checked the website and there were no flights in the immediate area until I scrolled out.
My coverage of my feeds is modest compared to what i have seen from the rest of you guys, I hope that my modest coverage is helping complete the larger picture.
Cheers

This should be about 99% correct.
Radar: F-xxxx = FR24 boxes / Hardware feeders.
Radar: T-xxxx = Users owned boxes uploading to FR24 / Software feeders.
