Hello,

 

I try to add the radar data for Belgium in my .ese file but for some reason, when I'm selecting 'simulate radar coverage' all airplanes disappear from the screen.

When I type .showantenna, all the radar stations show correctly on the screen.

 

This is it:

Hi Erik,

 

You're using the Radar2 definition, so you need to use the RADAR2 prefix in your ESE. Since you're using two of our radars, and that you'd probably need an example, here is the definition we use

 

RADAR2:Boulogne-Vaudringhem:N050.39.02.016:E002.02.15.000::::250:732:3100:250:732:3100

RADAR2:Chaumont-Cirfontaines:N048.26.58.099:E005.23.57.098::::250:1486:3100:250:1486:3100

 

Also, try using only ":" instead of ":0:"

 

Tell me if that works.

Pierre,

 

Thank you for the correct data of the two French radars. I had the correct data for the Belgian ones.....

 

I'll try your solution and I let you know.

Hi,

 

Just one question, what is it for ? It's just to add more realistic or functionality ?

 

Thanks,

Last question, where did you find all the information of each radar ? I can't find the half of what you found.
