M20FTraveler Posted November 6, 2017 Report Posted November 6, 2017 I did a search to see if anyone has been able to tie-in a GTX 345 to an existing MFD. My search found no topics that included "KMD 850". I can't be the only Mooney owner with one of these, can I? Anyhow, I thought it would be nice to be able to use my current MFD with the GTX 345 - maybe save some money. I will ask my avionics shop, but I wanted to be prepared to counter the "no" should there be a solution. Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
