EasyVFR, Foreflight Mobile, and others. 
 

6.4 Country Specific Configuration Items 

The following configuration items augment the configuration instructions 

found in the SkyEcho Installation and Pilot’s Guide with UK specific 

information. 
 

6.4.1 Transmit Control 

Transmission must be deactivated when used on an aircraft with an air 

traffic control radar beacon system (ATCRBS) Mode-S transponder which 

has ADS-B OUT enabled. 

 

 

6.4.2 Receiver Mode 

The SkyEcho contains dual receivers.  The primary receiver is permanently 

configured for 1090MHz ADS-B.  The secondary receiver can be 

configured for either 978MHz UAT ADS-B, or 868.4MHz FLARM® 

reception (European frequency only).  Only one option can be selected. 
When selecting UAT, SkyEcho will be able to receive 978MHz UAT ADS-B 

weather and traffic information if available. 
When selecting FLARM, encrypted FLARM data is received and 

transmitted to the EFB application for processing.  Specific FLARM 

functionality is dependent upon the EFB functionality implemented.
