5 Introduction
The SkyEcho 2 is a portable ADS-B transceiver. It incorporates the
following into a single portable Electronic Conspicuity Device (ECD):
• 1090MHz ADS-B traffic receiver
• Secondary receiver which is selectable between 978 MHz UAT ADS-
B or 868 MHz FLARM
• 1090 MHz Class A0 transmitter limited to 20W.
• Precision WAAS GPS meeting the performance requirements of
TSO-C199 Class B
• Barometer
• Wi-Fi support for interface to EFB applications and support function
SkyEcho 2 is designed to meet the performance requirements of United
Kingdom (UK) Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) Electronic Conspicuity (EC)
CAP 1931, version 2, dated April 11, 2018.
EC devices are intended for voluntary carriage on registered and non-registered UK
Annex II aircraft, non-complex EASA aircraft of <5700kg MTOM and for gliders and
balloons (including those covered under ELA 1 and ELA 2) within uncontrolled UK
airspace.
An EC device must not transmit at the same time as a Mode S transponder or ATCRBS
beacon and it doesn't replace the need for a transponder when required by
airspace/flight rules. If your aircraft is fitted with a working transponder, you must
switch off the transmitter function of your EC device.
An internal geofence prevents SkyEcho 2 from transmission within North America.
Within North America, receive functionality is supported.
