Subject: | Garmin 430 to GRT EFIS |
Anyone have a wiring diagram for a 430 to a GRT Sport? I could have sworn
that I've seen one, but can't find one now. Does it require an optional
arinc module to display course/glideslope info, from either the GPS or the
ILS receiver?
Thanks,
Charlie

All,
In my as-yet-non-airworthy Europa, I=92m about to replace the RG58 coax
originally installed for COM and XPNDR antennas. Both my newly purchased
COM and (mode =93S=94) XPNDR are part of the Dynon SkyView suite. Dynon
sez the RG58=85though perhaps adequate for the COM...will be very
unsatisfactory for the XPNDR, and the folks there refer me to =93Antenna
Cable=94, p. 230, (chap 11-p.12) in the SkyView installation guide where
various coax cables are considered.
(I cannot seem to include a link to the SkyView Installation Guide)
On p. 231, (chap.11-p.13) there is a chart which appears to state that
RG400 (M17/128) is fine IF its length is less than 8=92-4=94. I find
that this M17/128 is the spec. for the RG400 sold by suppliers like
Aircraft Spruce, SteinAir, and B & C.
The chart also lists an RG304 for lengths up to 12=926=94, and RG393 for
lengths up to 17=92-3=94.
There is also a link below the chart to manufacturer=92s data which is
more specific=85there is clearly a special realm reserved for coax
cables.
I=92ve located a source for the RG393 where I can buy a minimum of 100
feet at $6.89/ft=85and I=92m having trouble swallowing.
I=92m skeptical of the notion that SkyView customers are using coax
other than the widely available RG400 (M17-128), and I=92m VERY
reluctant to spring for this RG393. I do intend to replace ALL of my
RG58.
Can someone who has some keen knowledge on this subject give me some
guidance?
=85with appreciation,
Fred

I'd ask myself if the new xponder operates at a different frequency,
impedance, & power level from the old one. If it's the same......

The Skyview transponder sold for US market is 250 wats, mode S, using
the standard 1030 and 1090 Mhz frequencies that all Mode A and C
transponders use. In other words the difference is in the pulsed
message, not the frequency or power.
It is difficult to see why more than 8 ft of cable would be needed for a
2 place aircraft, unless the antenna needs to be in an unusual location.
Also difficult to see why the com radio would need better than RG-58
cable unless it has less noise rejection than the radios designed 30
years ago that worked just fine at ranges as far as 120 nm with
sufficient altitude.

It has lower loss, which becomes more critical as you go up in
frequency. Waht is OK at VHF, frequently isn't once you start working at
microwave frequencies.
