    Subject: GTX 330 screen
    From: "Eric_Kallio" <scout019@msn.com>
    (Also posted on VAF, but I seem to get a larger response here) After powering up my panel the only issue I have not been able to resolve easily is my transponder. It is receiving power and turns on and off as evidenced by the screen going turning on. However, the entire screen is a field of green. Every pixel is illuminated so there is no text or anything to read on the screen. I haven't found anything in the operator or maintenance manual to help me with this. Anyone have an idea what may be going on, or seen this before? Eric Kallio Putting the little pieces of an RV-10 into on big piece.

    My guess is that either the backlight setting has some issue, or the backlight sensor...or the contrast is set way off. Not sure which it would be, but it sounds like it may be one of those issues. Might need a call to garmin on that one, if the dealer can't help you.

    Robin, What landing lights are you using in the tips? The whole setup looks great, well done.

After having spent $220 on my first set of LED's for the -10 (which still required modifications http://painttheweb.com/painttheweb/rv-10/Lights_LEDHID.aspx ) I decided to fabricate some Red/Green Nav lights out of Auto parts. The lights were purchased on eBay for well under $10.00 each. The sockets were maybe $3.00 each and the Red Green Mirrored plexi was about $8.00 delivered. I think they turned out great. They are definitely brighter than my -10 Nav lights and many people comment on how noticeable my -10 nav lights are on the ground and in flight. Here are a few photos of the Nav lights installed. Note these are older Vans wing tips so we had to cut away the corners and replace them with aero tips.

    The landing lights are EBay 50W HID=92s for maybe $80/set. I have the Duckworks leading edge lenses. I don=92t care for wing tip landing lights, too much shadow effect IMHO. I always hook up Wig/Wag for extra visibility, aim one for taxi and one for landing flare. They should look really good when painted.
