    Subject: RE: Slaving a Garmin 296 to the GNS430
    --> Avionics-List message posted by: "Robert M. Limb" <Robert.Limb@btinternet.com> Has anyone had experience of hooking up a 296 to GNS430? Evidently using the "Aviation In" feature on the 296 and the auto crosslink feature on the GNS430 the Flight plan and user wpt's will be transferred automatically. The hook up appears to be via the GNS430 RS232 output port 1 feeding the Com1 296 data in (yellow wire). The Garmin Installation Manual figure 4-11 only shows a hook for the 195 and Pilot III. So I would like to see if anyone has got this setup working. The terrain data from the 296 is better than the 430 and it is WAAS enabled. Thanks Robert

    Subject: Re: Com Spec TR720
    --> Avionics-List message posted by: Chuck Niday <cniday@gb.nrao.edu> Folks, I called Comm Spec and they cheerfully emailed me pdf files of the radio's schematics and block diagrams. This was plenty for me to get the radio working again. I get the impression this list doesn't care much for radios and is much more interested in the "fancier electronics" found in MFD's, navigation systems, etc. I guess that's OK, but unfortunate when you consider the FAA will be mandating conversion to digital comm radios in the not so distant future. That should get folks excited. -- -Chuck Niday, N8DBN- Low Time Cessna Driver & Homebuilder Wannabe
