    Subject: Looking for info on GPS-50/60/65
    Has anyone with a UPS AT GX-50/60/65 panel mount GPS been able to change the ground speed readout from knots to MPH? I'm trying to finish a ground speed calibration series and it would be easier if the flight instruments and GPS had the same speed readout. I looked through the installation and operating manuals and didn't find any information on changing KNOTS to MPH. Anyone ever done this? If so how did you do it?

    Subject: Question on PS6000/SL-10 Audio Panel
    My PS engineering 6000 (mfg for UPS AT as the SL-10 MS) intercom has stereo audio inputs and outputs. The other day I was flying and finally plugged in my Sandisk mp3 player to enjoy some music while working my airspeed calibration runs. I had the Sandisk volume set at maximum and had to have the volume on the PS 6000 at 3/4 maximum to hear the music at a low level. Also the music sounded a little distorted (not too surprising given the volume setting on the 6000). I was hoping that there would be a pot on the circuit board that I could adjust to increase the input sensitivity but couldn't find anything in the manual about it. The system is set up for stereo but right now I'm running the mono Sigtronics headset that I purchased during my "Cessna" days, I have the volume on the headset at maximum when doing the above test. The 6000 manual says it's ok to plug in mono headsets so I doubt that the system has been damaged in any way. Anyone have some words of wisdom on running mp3 and other audio input devices with aviation intercoms and audio panels? I assumed the audio inputs needed high level (not speaker level inputs) but maybe the Sandisk just doesn't have enough oomph. In the short term I plan to convert the mono headset to Stereo, long term I plan to purchase an ANR Stereo headset of excellent quality (and unfortunately price). Please advise. Thanks.

    Try calling the legacy help desk at Garmin - they were willing to help me when I was troubleshooting my GX60....before the display crapped out..... ----- Original Message ----- From: "DEAN PSIROPOULOS" <dean.psiropoulos@verizon.net> Sent: Tuesday, April 27, 2010 9:53 PM Subject: Avionics-List: Looking for info on GPS-50/60/65 > <dean.psiropoulos@verizon.net> > > > Has anyone with a UPS AT GX-50/60/65 panel mount GPS been able to change > the > ground speed readout from knots to MPH?

    Not wanting to sound facetious, but how about changing the ASI to knots, a MPH ASI is a bit of a legacy device these days. All the distances you will be looking at on the GPS (or charts) are NM, not SM.
