Hi everybody!fresh meat here....Well,I am a pilot in the [glb]GREEK AIRFORCE Virtual[/glb] and amongst the planes we operate,there are AWACS support planes.We have been using the excellent Eric Marciano Radar Gauge to monitor the Airspace traffic,but the problem is that the range of 40 nm is far from enough....AWACS have a range of around 200 nautical miles.So my question is,if I can find another radar gauge of the same quality as Eric's,or if somebody could "fix" this one so that it can have a range of around 200 nautical miles(or  230 statute miles)!Really,we would be more than greatful if you could help us out!!

As the traffic is generated up to 40 nm, anything higher isnt usefull

Thanks for replying so soon!!Probably I didn't mention it,but what we need to monitor is NOT the AI traffic but hook the gauge up to AIBRIDGE and monitor our own squadron mates and designated "bogeys"flying into our airspace while flying our training missions on our server!

as they are inserted in the traffic table they will count as traffic, and won't appear on the radar until they are 40nm or closer

Any way to tweak the FS to generate traffic on longer distance?What program can somebody use to make a new gauge?thanx
