N44AB Posted April 24, 2013 Report Posted April 24, 2013 Interested in purchasing a 14/28v 430 or 530 (waas or non waas) for my 75 F model ranthony1@ca.rr.com Thanks....
Mooneymite Posted April 24, 2013 Report Posted April 24, 2013 Before you invest in a non-WAAS box, you might want to ask Garmin for the support of this item. Word I'm hearing is that if your non-WAAS box breaks, you have to up-grade it to get it repaired..... Just a rumor. Maybe someone knows for sure. The WAAS 430/540 gives you some great IFR advantages.

I will not disagree with you since all aircrafts will need a WAAS source by 2020 for ADS-B out. However, there will be plenty of options by then that do not have to use the panel GPS for WAAS. Also, it just a matter of time for when Garmin will stop supporting the non-WAAS 430/530, then the WAAS 430/530 , then the GTNs, etc ... Think of the avionics business model more like Microsoft or Apple where support goes back only to the last 2 or 3 products.
