I installed 17.3 in my dual HDX. Now, the traffic targets are dropping out, so much so that they're visible for about 30-40% of the time. I haven't checked the weather screens or the TFRs.
Questions:
- Am I the only one seeing this loss of ADS-B Traffic info?
- I see talk about an update to the transponder: Is that something I should also find and load? (or is that part of the overall 17.3 package?)

We have not had reports of this so far with 17.3.0. We do get reports from time to time of traffic dropping, but there have been some fixes for that over some of the recent system updates. So far it doesn't sound like others have noted any changes there with this one, but as Rhino did note, it is early since the version release.
Question 1: What version were you running prior to updating to 17.3.0? Were you on 17.1.0 or an earlier version?
Question 2: You noted the transponder update, which can be done but I doubt that it's related, but have you updated your ADSB module lately? You can see if the unit itself has an update present by going to SETUP > ADSB STATUS > enter this menu and if an update is available, it will prompt you in the menu to update it (in yellow). The most recent ADSB module update was only for the ADSB-472 module. So if you have an ADSB-470, the last update did not apply.
