Default TIS outage

Actually, I learned from the FAA today that Mode S was out in our local area
and under repair. Apparently the radar was working in IBS (?) mode, but not
full mode S, so traffic uplink was not available. However, when it works, it
works great- it's unbelievable how many planes are out there that you never
would see visually even with a mile or two and while doing a good scan!
