On startup the half up and half left don't quite make it to half. When flying a course on the 106 it would not match the CDI built in the 430 by about half a needle tick on the 106. I have entered the setup mode and done the 225 (I believe) adjustment and that is spot on. I don't fly hard IFR so it's not a life or death issue, but it was spot on before the upgrade so I know it can be adjusted somehow. I have the install manuals but I'm missing one that deals with calibration. I have pinouts and rack mounting antenna mounting etc but nothing on calibration. I learned about the set up mode from another user.

The install manual has a lot of info in it for connecting and configuring various peripheral equipment.
