How to show ADS-B towers

On a recent trip to the northwest I had noticed, to my surprise, that ADS-B towers were shown on my Android devices. Now I don't see them any more.

I assume there is a button or setting where you can opt in or out of showing the towers, but I can't find it.

Re: How to show ADS-B towers

it is obvious that no one on this forum knows how to see adsb towers on along with other obstacles. Hard to bwlieve...

I used to see them, but not now.

Come on...all the talent on this forum and no answer to this?

Re: How to show ADS-B towers

Tim,

I generally use my Ipad mini instead of the Ifly 720...primarily for the larger screen. I am using ver 10.1.23 on the 720 and ver 10.1.25 on the Ipad. I tried your suggestion and those options do not exist. I can get to MAP MODE -->NEXRAD but the only options are 1) Animate Nexrad 2) Set Nexrad Opacity 3) Update Weather from Internet......... There is no "GEAR" option What Ifly model and software version are you using?

I would like to see the adsb towers on both units. I have the L-3 ngt2000 installed in my airplane. The adsb in/out works fine on both units but I don't see the towers. The only other thought I have is "what does the icon look like on the screen"....

When I WAS getting the ADS towers my attention was drawn to them because they were blue, had ads written in small print under them and as I recall they had little waves eminating from them. That last part MAY be my imagination working overtime.

I also get no option for "GEAR" in the NEXRAD screen.
