Techniques are described that allow a system, such as a portable ADS-B-enabled device, to automatically determine whether the aircraft in which the system is employed is included in air traffic information (e.g., TIS-B air traffic information) broadcast by an air traffic control (ATC) ground station. The system includes a receiver assembly to receive a first transmission from a transponder of the aircraft that includes an identification address (e.g., an ICAO address) that identifies the aircraft. The receiver assembly also receives a second transmission from the ATC ground station that includes air traffic information and a client list including identification addresses of aircraft included in the air traffic information. The identification address of the aircraft is retrieved from the first transmission and used to determine whether the aircraft is included in the air traffic information by comparing the identification address with the identification addresses in the client list.
