They may be identical except for labeling. You could check with Mid Continent to confirm. http://www.mcico.com/master1.html?contact.html&1 OC Avionics-List message posted by: "Brinker" Can anyone tell me the difference between the GARMIN GI-106A VS. MD200-306 CDI/LOC/GS ? I have looked at the Garmin description on both and they seem to have the same features.

We traveled all the way to Joliet IL, but the event was rained out. We got a great write-up in the Chicago Herald, however. We also enjoyed talking shop with the other hard-core EV drag racers. http://www.suburbanchicagonews.com/heraldnews/sports/4_2_jo13_electric_s2.asp http://www.suburbanchicagonews.com/heraldnews/sports/4_2_jo13_electric_s1.asp Electrifying Times ran a few pictures from the test session on the 26th: http://www.electrifyingtimes.com/a123/KillaCycle.html We ran 9.024 @ 139 MPH at the test session. The bike was set at a modest power setting for these test runs. It should go even faster when we turn it up to maximum HP. If you want to know how safe these particular batteries are, look at the video on this web page: http://www.a123systems.com/html/tech/safety.html# Bill Dube' ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 01:01:09 PM PST US From: Subject: AeroElectric-List: --> AeroElectric-List message posted by: Time: 12:20:05 PM PST US From: "Brinker" Subject: AeroElectric-List: GARMIN GI-106A VS.

I have sent Mid Cont. an email so maybe I can get to the bottom of this. I would like to order a cdi/gs/loc and figured one of these 2 would be my best bet since Im' also going with a sl30. And they are priced close.

Check out Stark Avionics. Why pay more for less and get the "Garmin" label?
