I live in Mexico City but also near to the airport (5 miles). Will it be working all day long due to the airplanes?

I think,that this earthquake alarm need a strong movement to sound, it is supposed to be attached to a wall, if you are 5 milles away i believe that it not going to sound by airplanes movement, i live a few feets of a street where all type of cars and trucks pass,i had never hear since i installed to this date.

Oh, yes. I think you should be fine. You personally adjust it, so it should not respond to any other vibration other than the earthquake waves, once you set it. It's very easy to adjust too. I test it with all kinds of vibrations to make sure it's set right, and I never have had an issue. It's always spot-on according with earthquakes. It really is amazing.

I live a half mile from an air base with military choppers and jets flying overhead frequently. I've never had a false alarm from aircraft in the 5 years I've had this alarm.

it's hard to tell from the information you have mentioned but if you are speaking of not hearing " aircraft " base stations then unless you live close to the airport , that is normal. aircraft base stations are typically fairly low powered and have closer to the ground antennas designed to transmit mostly up into the air. the fact you are hearing aircraft suggests the antenna is working and that it's capable of hearing normal high powered base stations ( like police, trunking or pager transmitters ).

Definitely - I travel frequently and it works great. Doesn't seem like it even worked on an 12 hour flight.

I can't intelligently answer that question. I think mine is pulling in stations for 30-40 miles (L.A. County).

I Use it for couple of days here in USA on Tmobile and it worked.And now its being used in Mexico with no problem...

yes that should not be a problem. Plus then you have two batteries for long haul flights.

Yes! I have traveled with it on long international flights (about 16 hours with one layover). It's like any electronic device such as iPad, laptop or another smaller charger. I used it while on long fights with no problems.

Probably not unless you have a direct line of sight to the tower. You can probably hear planes overhead calling in but unless you are on a hill with line of sight to the tower don't count on much. If you are at the airport then you are good to go. I listen to ATIS while preflighting the plane and keep it as a backup in case the in plane radio goes out.

Provided the weather is good (at least not raining) I would say yes. Right now the sun is hiding behind lots of clouds and it is still charging. Moving or stationary does not make any difference. Have a nice trip.

That's a really good question! I'd be intrigued to know the answer as I've never used it in an airport. I'd say your best bet is to check with the airline you are flying with. Good luck!

If your airport has RCA it will work but the new airports don't have RCA maybe the older ones do. But you could get adapters to hook them up RCA to blutooth or optical audio to RCA.

Don't think so....Disney and airports and restaurants provide places to plug into and charge up, so; I had no problem extending battery use via break times, so not an issue! Get out there and have fun!

It will work on the plane's EmPower port -- many planes now (depending on carrier) have regular outlets that you can plug directly into. The "auto" portion is just an adapter.

I think it will work for as long as you have it on. I have not traveled over 3 and 1/2 hours with it on but I think it would keep right on working.

I'v used it in the US but have many service providers with new sim card, uses tmoble towers. plan to go to mexico don't expect any problems.

It will if you equip the plane with a Spectrum brand receiver. It is the most fun you can have.

Hi, its usually a 4-5 business day transit. I will confirm when I get to the office. Remember there is a holiday next week as well which can goof things up.
