excel VBA to find correct formula to get result from hexcode
Various reverse-engineered versions of the allocation algorithmsused by different countries to allocate 24-bit ICAO addresses based
on the aircraft registration These were worked out by looking at the allocation patterns and working backwards to an algorithm that generates that pattern,spot-checking aircraft to see if it worked.
YMMV.

No one understands what you're asking, please clarify

I have a list of codes which I don't have the hex value or binary value. I was trying to work out what the formula is , as you can see some of the codes have a mixture of letters and numbers. So how does 432B get converted to Hex - A52AA5
– Mr North
Nov 23 at 9:44
@MrNorth So what I understand (but maybe I am wrong) is that you are looking for a single Excel formula that will convert the 4 codes in the Hex equivalent??
– Peter K.
Nov 23 at 11:43
yes that is correct
– Mr North
Nov 23 at 12:51
Each code has the letter N at the start , not sure if that is relevant ? N1 , N2 , N432B , N678XX

I have a list of codes which I don't have the hex value or binary value. I was trying to work out what the formula is , as you can see some of the codes have a mixture of letters and numbers. So how does 432B get converted to Hex - A52AA5

Nov 23 at 9:44
@MrNorth So what I understand (but maybe I am wrong) is that you are looking for a single Excel formula that will convert the 4 codes in the Hex equivalent??
– Peter K.

yes that is correct

The mode s hex code is used in aerospace/navigation.
From wikipedia :
Mode S equipped aircraft are assigned a unique ICAO 24-bit address or (informally) Mode-S "hex code" upon national registration and this address becomes a part of the aircraft's Certificate of Registration. Normally, the address is never changed, however, the transponders are reprogrammable and, occasionally, are moved from one aircraft to another (presumably for operational or cost purposes), either by maintenance or by changing the appropriate entry in the aircraft's Flight management system.
There are 16,777,214 (224-2) unique ICAO 24-bit addresses (hex codes) available.[4][5] The ICAO 24-bit address can be represented in three digital formats: hexadecimal, octal, and binary. These addresses are used to provide a unique identity normally allocated to an individual aircraft or registration.
You can find the aircraft just be googling each mode s hex code, e.g. for the first one: https://www.radarbox24.com/data/mode-s/A00001#1068536488.
The N-code is the Aircraft Registration code. Again, from Wikipedia:
In the United States, the registration number is commonly referred to as an "N" number, because all aircraft registered there have a number starting with the letter N. An alphanumeric system is used because of the large numbers of aircraft registered in the United States. An N-number begins with a run of one or more numeric digits, may end with one or two alphabetic letters, may only consist of one to five characters in total, and must start with a digit other than zero.
I do not think there is any mathematical or logical relationship between the mode s hex and the aircraft registration code !!
There is a formula used, but I have not been able to research it. Had hoped a formula guru might have an answer
– Mr North
Nov 23 at 15:38
@MrNorth Do you have a source that confirms that there is a formula? I would seriously doubt that such formula exists. The FAA assigns the registration codes in the USA and has to choose a mode s hex code from a block that is made available by the ICAO for the US. It is indeed so that the Gulfstream owned by the FAA with registration number N1 has also the first mode s hex code from the block. But if you look at N2, ,the ICAO address is completely different. registry.faa.gov/aircraftinquiry/NNum_Results.aspx?NNumbertxt=2

I have a list of codes which I don't have the hex value or binary value. I was trying to work out what the formula is , as you can see some of the codes have a mixture of letters and numbers. So how does 432B get converted to Hex - A52AA5

@MrNorth So what I understand (but maybe I am wrong) is that you are looking for a single Excel formula that will convert the 4 codes in the Hex equivalent??

yes that is correct

Each code has the letter N at the start , not sure if that is relevant ? N1 , N2 , N432B , N678XX
