This is why I thought about feeding RB again. Great feature!!!
There is one disadvantage: the max range curve is so dark that the terrain map (roads, houses etc) are hardly distinguishable, even when zoomed. The range curve cannot be turned off.
In this respect opensky-network map is much better. You can turn off range curve, making map very clear.

That was the first thing that I tried to disable when I accessed the map for the first time today, but could not find the setting.
I fed the OpenSky Network for a period of time. I don’t remember the map. Is this something new?
Another one that I liked was ADS-B Exchange.
The main reason I stopped all those, as stated previously, is that I found re-installing them after re-imaging the SD card too much work.
