I would love directional traffic announcements

[CGameProgrammer]

When nearby traffic pops up on screen, it verbally announces "TRAFFIC" and says so on the screen as well. However since it knows where the traffic is, and what my magnetic heading is, I would like it to announce the traffic direction relative to me, at least optionally. For example "TRAFFIC 7 O CLOCK". Perhaps it could even optionally state relative altitude or distance but only as options.

Thanks for the link. Probably won't see the light of day but it would be nice if they implement it.

If implemented, I would request it to be configured so one could deselect the feature if desired. There's already too many alerts in my opinion.

I made this comment to the suggestions topic a couple of years ago after flying Garmin's system that does this.  It is a real safety enhancement, and I would really like to see this feature implemented.  It would be my #1 desired new feature, and frankly I think about the lack of this every day I get a traffic call out.
