    New SV-ADSB-472 Dual Band Receiver

    Dynon is saying that the AF-5000 series system will work with their new SV-ADSB-472 Dual Band Receiver, and that it is a direct swap out for the SV-ADSB-470 (the current ADSB receiver that we currently have). Can AFS verify this?

    I talked to them last week and to swap out you need to deal directly with Dynon. This what Tricia said via email.

    To trade in your ADSB-470, you need to go through Dynon. On their website,
    is a link for the trade-in program. Open "News". In the announcement for
    the new Dual Band ADSB, click on the link "affordable trade-in program"
    this will access the Trade-In Form that you need to complete. If you have
    any questions, please let me know.

    Hope this helps. Larry

    Thanks Larry, I applied for the trade-in yesterday in anticipation of this being a direct swap-out. Just wanted confirmation from the AFS guys that there won't be a software change needed. Have you spoken to anyone at AFS other than Tricia?

    No I have not. You make a good point. Since we have plenty of time perhaps Shawn will respond with info regarding any needed software update for the dual version ADSB IN. Larry

    Just talked to Rob,
    It will work. Direct swap-out!!!

    This means air-to-air traffic when beyond the range of a ground station. Fantastic!

    There is a software change required so I would recommend delaying the trade-in if you want to fly with ADS-B in the near future. The software is almost out of beta for the touch screen users. It will need to go through beta on the non-touch displays.

    I emailed support a few days ago regarding the progress of the software update for the touch screen but have not heard back. Does anyone have any info regarding the progress of the testing?

    The software is in feature lock and in its final stage of beta release.

    Will this automatically filter or distinguish duplicate targets air to air/air to ground or display both?

    It may need some tweaking but properly configured traffic targets should only show up once.
