Hi Robin,
You are correct...and there are a couple alternatives out there, but their
price points make the GNS boxes the less expensive way to go. Someone
mentioned the 480's and indeed they are WAAS certified, but due to supply &
demand, they often times bring more on the used market than a new 430W
costs! So, the quick/dirty answer is that the GNS box is still the best way
to go from a money perspective.
Sorry I don't have any better news!
Cheers,
Stein

Subject: Certified WAAS GPS
I am considering the G3X for my 8A project. Much like other vendors the
G3X includes a VFR WAAS GPS. Sounds like all the accuracy with none of the
certification. For one to fly legal WAAS IFR GPS approaches I believe the
unit need to be driven off a certified WAAS GPS as far as I understand.
Other than the 430W & 530W what are my other options for certified a WAAS
GPS feed?
Robin
