When flying using my ifly 740 (and also my android tablet), I can see all of the info uploaded from the ground by selecting ADSB Info > Detailed Form.  All of the data fields seem to receive constant updates from the ADSB IN except TFR which always shows 0 updates.  When i update my tablet on the ground using Wifi, I receive the TFRs.  When updating my 740 using iFly connect I receive the TFRs.  I just dont get any TFR updates while flying.

Is TFR info updated on ADSB In provided?  I am using a Stratux ADSB In receiver with both 1090 and 978 receivers.  Could this be unique to Stratux?

i noted the same situation a year ago when oregon was having many forest fires and TFRs were popping up all over, but not on my 740b.  i had TFRs that i had loaded from my desktop, but none in-flight.  they seemed to blame it on inconsistant broadcasting of the TFRs.  however, your observation seems to challenge that premise. i receive in-flight weather updates fine.

tisb will broadcast any tfr data, if you're not getting it I will tell you it's 99.9999999999999999999999999999% going to be stratux. There's a reason we don't retail them anymore. THey like to break in new and innovative ways.

Had the opportunity to try my iFly using Dynon Skyview as an ADSB IN source instead of Stratux.  Same issue occurrs.....Detailed ADSB info in iFly shows all data being received with the exception of TFR's which shows 0 TFRs. The ADSB info shown on theSkyview system showed 24 TFR's received.  Seems like iFly is not processing uplinked TFR info.  Will look for other ADSB IN sources to validate

Agree - Haven't had any local TFR's in a while but certainly last couple of times we did they never showed up on my 740. Source uAvionix Echo UAT. So I don't think this is in any way a Stratux specific issue.
