Bill, I have an SL-30 you could use as a test, if nobody has coughed up one already. I'm based at TTA (though the SL-30 is in an under-construction plane in the fuselage sitting in my garage). I work in RTP, so a detour to 8NC8 after work isn't completely unreasonable. Another alternative would be to meet at TTA for a quick test. Let me know what works for you and we'll make a plan. -- Dwight On 5/20/12 8:14 PM, Bill Watson wrote: > > > I just returned from trip out west in my RV10 N215TG.

From: John Long Bill, I have an SL-30 in my RV8 and I had to do the same thing earlier to confirm operation. I am based at Gastonia KAKH just west of CLT. If you want to come over I'll be happy to help. Confirm your unit is a Garmin and not the Apollo version. I was not able to get an Apollo SL-30 to seat in my Garmin SL-30 rack. Everything looked the same but the Apollo would not fit and the Garmin would. Anyhow if you need me give me a call John Long 410-903-4988 On Sun, May 20, 2012 at 8:14 PM, Bill Watson wrote: > > > > I just returned from trip out west in my RV10 N215TG.

If that does not work out I have an SL-30 In Monroe GA and would be happy to help.
