TCUDustoff Posted February 6, 2022 Report Posted February 6, 2022 Got this from a local shop, but ended up installing a 430W instead when my existing COM#1 died. I did power it up when installing my G5s, but didn't get a photo -- can grab photos of the antenna, a GA35, and unit powered up upon request. Price is shipped to the lower 48. Willing to entertain reasonable offers. Quote
aviatoreb Posted February 6, 2022 Report Posted February 6, 2022 I thought the 400w does com as well. I thought the difference re a 430w is that the 430w also does nav radio. Am I wrong? Quote

AIREMATT Posted February 7, 2022 Report Posted February 7, 2022 Believe the 400 s Nav system only. Need a 430 to get Comm too. 1 Quote

ZuluZulu Posted February 8, 2022 Report Posted February 8, 2022 Also, just look at the face of the unit (and compare to easily Googled photos of a GNS-430W). The lack of a left-side knob to tune frequencies, no VOL/SQ knobs, and no flip-flop buttons are a dead giveaway. 1 Quote
