Title: Chicago TRACON Feeder tape delay?
Post by: MrClutch on December 16, 2013, 06:46:21 PM
On O'Hare feeder this evening, everybody is saying "good morning."
None of the aircraft identified match what's on RadarBox and Flightradar. What's going on?

Just listened and the feed is indeed live.  And since I operate that set of feeds I can guarantee there is 0% chance of any delay.

So….hmmmmm.  Not sure what could be up.

Are you listening live or to a recording?

I suppose I could have punched in some other airport and not noticed it, but that seems unlikely, since it happened at 1800 Eastern.
I sure didn't go to archives.

So I just tuned in to that stream and heard C90 talking to UAL959:

So….I think it's live.   :-)

Maybe he was listening to Global Flight 33?

No, it was LiveATC, Chicago TRACON feeder, from around 18:05 to maybe 18:20. Everybody was using "good morning." I was had RadarBox up, and none of the AC were on it, even accounting for the 5 or 10 minute delay.

The only conceivable possibility, if you were using the Flash Player, is that your Flash cache was playing back from a previous connection and was corrupted.
