Is ADSB implemented in USA and/or Canada yet ? I can't see how this
gadjet would work otherwise, and there is no mention in the "blurb"
that ADSB needs to be implemented.
Regarding cost of base stations, I guess the ones Airservices are
buying cost a lot more than USD900, but then they are looking for high
reliability, and wide environmental survivability plus remote control
and monitoring of the station, which adds some complexity. Still cost
*way* less and have much lower maintenance costs than a secondary
radar installation.
