We are pleased to announce the release of Radar V2 forwarder V2 for the 1090MHz UK ASS-B system. Radar V2 is a significant re-write of the original code and sees many performance improvements, several bug fixes and an updated protocol.

We are implementing a phased change over from the V1 (legacy) protocol to the new V2 protocol - the aggregator handles both.

We encourage anyone running the V1 system to switch to V2 as it is slighly more efficient, slightly lower latency and uses HMAC authentication tags to protect data in transit.

Information on the Radar V2 system is here.
