Model 12 Automatic Transponder

This transponder is my new Model 12 Standard that is designed to somewhat mimic real life function of transponders. It operates on a single frequency (1030) so you can have, theoretically, an enormous number of vehicles using the system at the same time without the need for large numbers of receiving antennas.

It was made to work with the TPS-8A Radar system. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2284052618

Basic Function:
It only transmits when the radar detector triggers. The radar on the other end will only be listening when it is detecting a target so it cuts out rogue transmissions.

Channels:
1) ID number (usually 1-5 digits)
2) GPSX
3) GPSY
4) Altitude
5) Airspeed
6) Compass reading (raw Stormworks compass. The conversion to degrees is done by the radar)
