Hello Friends! I have some legacy instruments, removed from an M20F (and a few from a Cherokee) DM me and we can figure how to get these devices out of my hanger and into yours I've lowered the price King KF87 ADF receiver and indicator and antenna. $750 Two Terra TXN 920 Nav-Coms , $200 each Two Terra VOR/LOC/GS indicators. $500 (model1100-01) and $400 respectively A WX-8 Stormscope $1000 Rocky Mountain Instruments encoder $150 TMA-230D Audio Panel and Marker Beacon Receiver, and a Intervox intercom $525and $110 Narco AT50 A transponder, INOP, Parts only, $25 Horizon Tachometer $125 JP instruments EGT-CHT monitor with three exhaust and three cylinder head probes $100 Shadin Fuel flow indicator and it's transducer $400 And there is an Apollo GPS $80 works fine but databases no longer updated.

I have a brand new Garmin GTN 750 xi that I have for sale. Still in the unopened original box. It would have to be installed by a Garmin approved installer for the warranty. Selling because I no longer need it. Asking $17,950 US including basic ground shipping within the US and Canada Steve sdawson630@gmail.com

My KX-155 nav/com, which acts as a backup to my Garmin 530, failed a few months ago (it wouldn't power-up). I delayed trying to get it fixed until my annual this past month. Unfortunately, my shop didn't have any great plans for being able to get it fixed in a reasonable time and cost. They were actually encouraging me to have a GNC255 installed to "match the rest of my panel". Technically, I'm not a CB, but I thought that was ridiculous. So, with the help on mooneyspace.com, I pursued other options. I happened upon kx-155.com, read the good reviews, and decided to try them. Now, I'm adding my own review: I just can't imagine a better option. It only took 11 days from the time I sent it off until the day I received it back, and that included a 48 hours long bench test. Along the way, Ed from kx-155.com, aka Soldan Electronics, keep me informed every step of the way. I received 3 detailed videos from Ed. The first showing that he had gotten my radio up and running by replacing the power supply. The second showed the unit on his bench test stand, and how mic gain, output power, frequency deviation, and an assortment of other adjustments needed to be made. The last video was also on the test stand with all the new components installed and all adjustments made. Total cost was $1499.00 The invoice read: "Fix Switching power supply, REPLACED FREQ TRANSFER SWITCHES, REPLACED PHOTOCELL IN DIMMING CIRCUITS, Lube all switches controls for smooth noise free operation, adjust Mic Gain, TX power, AGC Squelch, TX freq, VOR composite level.....install Overhauled Faceplate and new lenses...Detail and clean. Run 48 hours and Retest all again." The unit looks brand new and works like a charm. It came with a nice Allen tool along with instructions about how to properly reinstall it into the panel without damaging the unit. All along the way, Ed was adamant about me checking to make sure I have proper cooling to the avionics stack. That right there tells me he is more focused on customer service than on his own productivity. I couldn't be happier!

Anyone out there with experience troubleshooting NAV/COMM radio issues with the GNS-530W and willing to provide troubleshooting advice? I am experiencing some problems with my installation and want to troubleshoot as much as I can before handing over to avionics shop. thanks in advance - Hank
