My Narco AT50 transponder quit and I opted for the Garmin. New technology,
shorter and I bought the pig tail for the Garmin from Aircraft Spruce along
with the transponder.. A friend at an avionics shop added the connector for
the ACK encoder in a half hour at no cost. Never even considered having the
Narco repaired. Total cost was less than Narco's exchange price.

Have you guys really had good luck with the Garmin transponder? I had one installed
in my CJ6A and it was no end of trouble. It kept drifting off frequency,
something I would not have expected from a solid-state transponder. I guess
I must have had a bad one.

There is a time to laud one's country and a time to protest.
A good citizen is prepared to do either as the need arises.

Brian,
I have had great luck with my Garmin transponder. I also know of another
person on the field that has had the Garmin 330 for some time now. We have
the TIS displayed on Garmin 530's. The TIS, traffic information system, is a
wonderful thing. Can't say anything bad about them. Well, there was an AD
that came out recentlybut it was a software fix for the mode S that is
correceted for free by a Garmin shop.
Steve

I had the 320 and it was a royal pain. I swore I would never get another Garmin
transponder. I am glad to hear that mine was an anomaly. I have stayed away
from mode-S as it transmits the aircraft's ID, a feature I do not find particularly
attractive.
I have installed three panels worth of Apollo stuff (SL15, SL-30, SL-60, SL-70,
and a GX-60 in one case) and couldn't be happier. The SL-30 gets my vote for
best nav-com ever built. An SL-30 and an SL-70 constitutes a complete IFR avionics
stack for a low-end aircraft.

Jeff, sorry, but I don't have that available as I was not interested at that
price. I got the name of the vendor from another pilot. Will try to get it.
Seems it was in Indiana????Check with me about the end of the week.
