Rather than hi-jack someone else's SE thread, I've done a search but can't find the answer to my theoretical questions so would appreciate some advice or else a pointer to a thread I may have missed:
Suppose , in the dying days of the CAA refund freebie bonanza I were to dive in and order a Sky Echo:?
I have a total aversion to any extra cables festooned around the cabin: I have enough already, with my back up Garmin 296 , my iPad mini and GoPro
So (and I appreciate I would need a Flarm sub obtained via SD ) if I were to shove a Sky echo on the cabin window I understand it would talk to my iPad mini4 running Skydemon by bluetooth and give traffic warnings as a screen image:
Could the audible warnings be sent by bluetooth to mini bluetooth ear bud(s) shoved in my ears under my Dcs? Or would that be too many bluetooths (teeth?) for my iPad to cope with?
Would a suitable alternative be to run a second copy of SD on my backup iphone and get the warnings, visual and audible, sent to the iPhone and thence blue- toothed to some earbuds?
I realise that the iPhone would have a pretty small screen and I would rather have all the info (SD route and SE warnings ) on my iPad mini if possible.
Perhaps by connecting the apple (wired-urgh1) earphones to the iPad mini and shoving them under my DCs and saving myself the cost of bluetooth earbuds, this might get over the bluetooth problem.
I realise I haven't got long till CAA shut off the offfer and I have already taken the step of registering an account with the CAA in the first instance.
Then if I do jump (still undecided) I understand they have to see an order form or receipt before agreeing to consider a rebate.
Hope that makes sense and any pointers gratefully received
Oh and presumably the Hex code published alongside the G-INFO entry is reliable-or where else would I get it?
TIA
Peter
