    Subject: GNS 430 Volume
    After installing a used GNS-430 in my RV-7 project, I'm noticing that the volume knob doesn't seem to be working -- The output is only at one level, and can only be altered by the headset's own volume control. I doubt it'll be loud enough for flight, even with the headset turned up all the way. I've tried it through the intercom (Sigtronics), and also without. The audio Hi output is connected to the intercom (or directly to headset jack, during my trouble-shooting), and the audio Lo is grounded at the firewall. Any thoughts?

    Subject: Buying and Selling Avionics
    What is the most effective way of selling and buying used avionics? I am interested in buying a used Garmin GNS 430. I am interested in selling: * Garmin GNC 420 * VAL INS 422 TSO VOR/ILS * King KT76A transponder * EZ Pilot autopilot My main preoccupation is selling. Ideally I would like to be able to trade in my Garmin GNC 420 for a GNS 430 and supplement with either money or some of my other avionics. Do you know of any shop that does such deals, or should I advertise in a site like eBay, Barnstormers or any other one? Thanks. George Nielsen Vans RV-6 PH-XGN Lelystad, the Netherlands

    This may not be your problem, but the actual volume lags the movement of the knob on the Gx30 products. It really annoys me, but hey what can you bu develop a workaround. The knob must be moved and left alone for a second or two of actual reception before moving it again. If you have the knob full up and have left it there, then that issue is not your problem. It could be a bad impedance mismatch between the 430 and your intercom and/or headset. Also, try grounding the audio lo to the 430 or intercom rather than ships ground.
