Hi folks,
Having now added a PA system to the aircraft, I'm seeing some great results with SkyDemon producing aural alerts for traffic. The one main issue I have is when joining the circuit, it just won't shut up. Today, I also had it warning about traffic at the hold when I took off. This can be very distracting and has had me shouting at SD to shut up, followed by trying to yank out the audio cable.
Would there be a way of adding a filter so that (say), it doesn't display any traffic warnings below a set value? I'd probably set mine at 1500ft AGL for example.

I think the idea of an altitude filter has merit but my preference would be for it to just inhibit the aural traffic warnings. The traffic could still be displayed on SD because you don't have to look at that but it is more the voices in my head that I find a bit distracting. I can just turn off the Bluetooth on my headset but I would prefer not to have to do that. I know Tim would like to still have the 'entering runway'-type warnings below 1500' but I would certainly support a function whereby aural traffic warnings could be automatically muted below (for instance) 1500'.
