Starting Monday, December 3rd, we are now shipping the new SV-ADSB-470 Traffic and Weather receiver for SkyView.
To order, the official part number and description is:
SV-ADSB-470 UAT BAND ADS-B Traffic and Weather Receiver (US only)
The list price is $995, and is available directly from us as well as your favorite Dynon dealer.
Please note that this product only works in the US with the US FAA ADS-B system, as it receives on the US-only 978 MHz UAT frequency. It will not work for either traffic or weather in other countries.
The product brochure may be downloaded here.
The SV-ADSB-470 module requires a separate external antenna and coax cable which we do not sell; any antenna suitable for use with an aircraft transponder will work, as will UAT specific antennas. The SV-ADSB-470 antenna must not be placed within 2 feet of the transponder antenna.
Also note that for traffic reception, the SV-ADSB-470 requires the SkyView Mode-S transponder to be part of the SkyView system. Weather reception works without the Mode-S transponder.
Finally, the
SV-ADSB-470 requires SkyView Version 5.0, which will not be released for several more weeks. We are releasing the hardware early so that customers can receive and install the module in time for the software release.
A pre-installation guide to physically install the SV-ADSB-470 module will be available at http://docs.dynonavionics.com on Monday, Dec 3. The software release will be announced on our Website.
