Default Transponder Hex Code-Skyview

Trying to input a hex code for my transponder however I cannot find the code. I thought is was listed online in the aircraft registration however all I find is a base 8 and base 16 code. I would appreciate anyone pointing me in the right direction.

The base 16 hex code is the correct one to use with the Trig.

In this context, "hex" is short for "hexadecimal" which means Base 16.

Thanks, I figured it out shortly after this post. I put the code in my Skyview and flew the airplane. ADS-B is working correctly and the auto setting on my transponder is working correctly.

Thanks,

Pat
