Hi All,

 

Now that some of the voice servers have the ability to show who is transmitting, is there a way that this data could be used to create a VDF for euroscope?

 

Just a thought...

Some seem to have it nowadays: http://voice1.vacc-sag.org:18009/?opts=-R-D

It shows the last one transmitting directly after the station name.

 

Oh, getting the direction of the last transmitter in relation to a antenna would be great (or, less realistic but very helpful I guess, just see who was transmitting last).

Currently in Beta, but only for the Beta-Testers of Euroscope. (Uses functions in a new pluginlibrary version.)

For more info look at http://es-pluginworld.nilshillmann.de/projects/vdf

Will be online as a beta (but only usable for Euroscope Beta-Tester) asap. (Eventually final release for Euroscope Beta-Tester at this weekend)

------

You can find plugins for EuroScope at http://es-pluginworld.nilshillmann.de/projects/

Currently available there:

- OCC Plugin Version 1.2 (Development approved by Gergely Csernak)

Wow, more than just the bearing to the transmitter?

This is one of the newer up-to-date VDF systems.

Yep, that's just what I thought VFR Pilot requests a QDM/QDR, you look on your VDF screen and tell him.

 

Anyway, it would be great to have the new info from voice server somehow in EuroScope.

Would this be used for the standard voice servers as well? Being Europe CW etc?

Hello,

anybody knows why EUROPE-CE (europe-ce.vatsim.net:18009/?opts=-R-D) which we at VACC-CZ are using does not support this feature? Is it possible to ask somebody directly from VATSIM to check this out?

Is there any update on this project now that we have ES v3.2? It would be very useful even if it just shows QDM.
