Subject: Two radios or one?      
      
      Listers,
      
      With the advent of the =9Cmonitor standby=9D feature on manymod
      ern radios, are folks still installing two panel-mounted radios or sticking
      with one plus a handheld backup? Used to be we had to tell ATC we=99d
       be =9Cofffreq for one, monitor Guard, report back up=9D to lis
      ten to ATIS. No longer. 
      
      Plan is for basic IFR: single VOR/LOC/GS, GPS, thinking G3XPFDs (10 inch an
      d/or 7 inch), maybe a Garmin combo GPS/NAV/COM.  The RV-8panel is a bit sma
      ll, and saving space is becoming a necessity as the layoutmatures.
      
      Is there a pressing need for that  second COM? 
      
      Many thanks, and fly safely.

      Yes - I offer that for an IFR plane a second radio should be part of the pan
      el.  I have the Garmin GTN-650 for Comm #1 and the Dynon radio for Comm #2. 
       Performance wise the Dynon works just as well as the GTN-650.  The Dynon ra
      dio itself is mounted behind the panel with just a small control head on the
       panel.  If you have the Dynon SkyView EFIS the radio is integrated into the
       EFIS so freqs are automatically uploaded.
      
      We just did a panel upgrade for my old RV-8A using a single 10" SkyView EFIS
       with a stand alone Dynon D10A as the backup.  All fit well on the panel - e
      ven with adding an airspeed and altimeter steam gauges.

      I agree=2C for IFR=2C a second radio is important for redundancy and pickin
      g up ATIS.  With the monitor function=2C on a busy channel=2C trying to get
       the ATIS gets blocked by transmissions on the active freq.
