Thanks - this is the info then:
So this is sharing all aircraft info on TIS-B 978MHz by the looks of it. Sounds similar to the US system to me? Just that an extra RPAS/Drone layer is added.
@Shoestring Flyer
I know of many people flying with many of those devices already in the UK. The only ones I am unaware of are the Dual and Dynon receivers. But there is no reason why they couldn’t be used here if you decided to buy one (because it’s a global standard - get it?) The good Harry Mendhelsson sells the Dynon and the Dual so there must be at least a few in the UK I would have thought?

uAvionix and Plane Finder are deploying a robust surveillance and broadcast environment created by a network of ground stations that receive the EC information from aircraft and rebroadcast it to all as an integrated air picture via international standards.
