Erich,
ADSB monitoring should give direction just like
Flarm. You may be seeing Mode S returns with no
ADSB position/speed/direction information in the
message. Or Mode C returns which won't give
direction either. Both should give relative altitudes though.
OK what is TABS?

Please correct me if I am wrong:
Anyone who does not own a powerflarm should sign the petition.
..unless you are happy with being forced to
replace your perfectly working flarm with a powerflarm - that is nearly $2500!
Any OZflarm, miniOz, flarm-mouse, etc will be
affected. Some people own gadgets like LXNax LX90xx or LXNavigation Zeus..
Guess what: the integrated flarm engine of your
very nice but not cheap instrument will be
rendered useless and you will have to buy a powerFlarm.
..I would sign if I were you.

My personal view: PowerFlarm with ADSB traffic
monitoring is a bit like a joke. Yes, there is a
warning of "incoming". But no indication of direction.
TABS is in the making and looks very promising - and affordable.
