No N Number Display

[Bruce]

When flying our recently completed RV-12 E-LSA with standard SkyView components, a friend in his similarly equipped RV-12 aircraft sees my traffic target, but no N number.  Meanwhile I see his target and N number.  Both of us see other targets with N numbers displayed.

My -12 has SV 14.2.1 installed.  The transponder has version 2.09 installed.  The GPS is SV-250.  The FAA ADS-B report shows NIC=6.0, SIL=1.0, SDA=1.0 with all other parameters okay.  I receive ADS-B traffic so presumably I am in the ADS-B system.

When I access Flightradar24.com to check my ADS-B OUT tracks, our -12 N43SQ is not found in their database.  So is my problem our equipment or is the airplane, which was registered five months ago, not in a ADS-B database of some sort?

First thing: Have you checked that your ICAO code is A52264?

Second: Did you check that the FAA report shows a recent flight and isn't showing from a long time ago?

Third: Have you had a transponder check recently?

Fourth: Any errors shown in the transponder status page?

Flightaware shows you just fine. But they can correct most of the time if you have a bad N number entered or a bad ICAO code entered.
