  I am a contractor at the FAA's ADS-B Program specializing in ADS-B for General Aviation Aircraft. I assist Repair Stations and aircraft owners with their ADS-B Installations providing Performance Reports which describe in detail the data being broadcast by a particular ADS-B installation and, if the data are non-compliant, I provide likely causes for the anomalies and advice for bringing the system into compliance.
