Not receiving traffic

To those who don't see traffic on an iPad,

I have 2020 compliant Dynon 1090ES TXP, fed by Garmin 430W for GPS position, and had bought a SkyRadar D (original) years ago. I immediately got lots of traffic displayed on WingX.

BTW, SkyRadar outputs data in the Garmin GDL-90 format. The message spec is available on-line at:

Now, I have a SkyRadar D2 unit, and the traffic has gone away on WingX. This is because Alexey, some time later, removed Msg hex 14 from the Skyradar output. Wingx relies on this message to display traffic. So does Flt Plan Go. Alexey says that everyone should be using Msg hex 1E and 1F instead.

I have contacted Hilton Software (WingX) and Fltplan.com but so far no correction.

Personally, I switched to FlyQ EFB on the iPad and the traffic is back.

Sorry about the link in the last post.  The document had been taken down.  Found it on another site:

This forum won't allow that big of an attachment or I would put it here.

Well that explains it partly because I receive traffic on wingX on another DX unit installed in my Husky.  The DX unit installed in my bonanza does not receive traffic on wingX but does on FlyQ.  Bonanza has kt74 out and bottom mounted external antenna for reception.  Husky has the skyguard supplied antennas.

Did it work?
