  1. that was actually me for some reason it posted as someone else.
  2. trig avionics has a cheap compliance pathway with a TT31 or TT21 xponders. the tt31 is a dropin replacement for the kt76a
  3. if every plane had ads b out, at what distance will i pick up an inbound target with an 1090 ES reciever? i.e how big is the hockeypuck of separation for ads-B? thanks
  4. i have an insight strikefinder that needs a new LED. it will cost $1400 to fix it and it will come with a warranty. i havent sent it in yet but i would be happy to let it go cheap. i have a wx 500 and i love it.
  5. can i put a l3 skywatch in a mooney m20k? is it compatible with my GMX 200?
  6. so an ads b 1090 reciever wont detect a mode c transponder? doesnt a mode C use 1090mhz?
  7. as i understand it a CAS interrogates transponders in the area on the 1090 mhz freq and does not use radar.
  8. someone please educate me... what would be the advantages of a collision avoidance system over an ads-B 1090 mhz reciever? range? also L3 Skywatch versus GTS 800. which one is better and why? thanks.
  9. I was wondering what would be the benefits of a TAS system vs ADS-b with TIS-B? could someone please educate me because i was considering a TAS but I wasnt sure if it was worth the money. i live in Florida so we get good ADS-B coverage most of the time. to me it would be too confusing to have 2 transponders. which one would I enter the squawk code? I am considering the navworx reciever and a trig transponder.
  10. get a jpi 830. it is more accurate for tit.
  11. http://www.airtrafficmanagement.net/2012/07/garmin-enhances-adsb-offering/ a good article with some info not on the website. $3995 msrp. Q4 for STC??? freeflight rangr stc should be finished soon; they are probably are waiting to announce it at oshkosh. says it will be compatible with most mode C transponders as a control head. thats better than the Rangr.
  12. but if you have a 978mhz reciever and an 1098 ES mode S you should be able to get FIS-B and TIS-B right? right now I get FIS-B and some TIS-B on my adsB reciever (skyradar) IIRC the GTX 330ES will display TIS-B but doesnt not recieve FIS-B.if they would make it recieve 978 mhz it would be a great upgrade. Trig Avionics claims adsB mandate compliance with their TT-21 and TT31 mode S tranponders. interestingly enough they did the certification in a Mooney. some one please correct me if i am wrong but why do i need a 978mhz transmitter and a 1098ES transmitter? wouldnt a 1098ES transponder and a 978mhz reciever be sufficient to get TIS-B/FIS-B and be compliant ?
  13. looks like Garmin has a new ADS B device. its a dual band reciever and a 978 mhz out. (UAT) https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=272&pID=63471 looks like they have a portable version coming out too. no compatibility guide yet. pricepoint isnt TOO bad. for aircraft that can go into class A it doesnt make much sense to get a UAT and a 1090ES tponder am i right? why have 2 transponders? i plan on getting a 1090ES tponder for compliance and an ads b reciever only. any thoughts?
  14. ive got an insight strikefinder that needs the display replaced. $ 1400 to get it refurbished to the led. i would let it go cheap or $2000 if i send it in.
  15. TSA = too stupid for Arbys
  16. there are old pilots & bold pilots, but no old, bold pilots.
  17. im spending the night.. http://radar.weather.gov/ridge/radar_lite.php?rid=TBW&product=NCR&loop=yes
  18. last radar was worse. i may have to wait overnight
  19. on the way back from Louisiana after taking the kids to visit my mother for a couple of weeks. i got out just in time but now i am stuck in Perry (40J) i gotta say the staff have been very hospitable. Bill Roberts is a nice guy for a cherokee owner and he was the project manager of the USAF C17 globemaster. interesting guy to talk to. home base is AVO so just waiting out the Tstorms. hope the weather to the east doesnt catch up to me.
  20. duats wont accept grey on a flt plan. i write blue but its only blue trim. any suggestions?
  21. Quote: fantom Lots of fun....sure; please be safe and obey the formation rules, you civilian pilots . I'll be there all day Tuesday through Thursday, and probably half a day on Friday, WX dependent. Staying in safe and sane Appleton. Can we agree on a time and place to get MooneySpace and other Mooney folks together, maybe somewhere up on the plains of Oshkosh? I'd organize it myself, except for fear of some deranged Yankee dentist showing up to "drill" me. Isn't Wednesday evening for:
  22. if anybody going can find out the details about Garmin's new ADS-B tranceiver that is supposed to showcased and please post them? i am sure i am not the only one interested in this. thanks
  23. that looks great! i want to do something like that but i was worried about copyright infringement.
