What is the range of my radio transceivers?
- This will depend on the height of your transceiver, the height of the receiving aircraft and to a lesser extent whether your sector has been pre-configured by your local Facility Engineer or you are using controller client visibility centres. If you are using controller client visibility centres, your own transceiver height is set based on the type of facility you are connecting as.
- All ‘top down’ transceivers added through the ATC client have the same specifications as DEL, GND and TWR transceivers.
- The circles displayed on the AFV ATC client represent the range of each transceiver at sea level.
