Changing the harness is a giant pain so I would rather just cut off the old one and splice in a new. Problem is Garmin charges $475 for a GTP59 probe and 3 wire coax which is highway robbery. Ive looked into Davtron probe for about $100 but cant find anyone to let me know if it will work. Seemingly how different can it be? Anyone have any experience with this? Also Im getting a COMM FAIL indicator on my SL30 intermittently IT still works if I turn the radio off then back on, then left it on in the hangar for 2 hours with battery charger on and NO Fail. Garmin answer is send to them which they now FLAT RATE repair for $875. So if you send them the unit and they dont find anything wrong its still $875. Apparently Garmin dealers are n to allowed to open up the box. They will put power on it but thats all. Sort of a ripoff if you ask me. Id appreciate any input THX avdilger@yahoo.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message rv8-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/RV8-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/rv8-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/rv8-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
