    Can I install an Avidyne IFD540 as an owner?

    Changing from radio A to radio B is an alteration. Pilots can return to service alterations. This is a source of great debate, but my stance is this is a major alteration requiring a 337.

    G5 HSI and KFC 150 auto pilot

    The 530W is not receiving the 429 course in from the G5. So the 530W can not decode the left right deviation. The G5 displays the deviation because it calculates it internally. Check your 429 input port on the 530W. It is probably turned off.

    Seeking advice on strange ADS-B behavior

    No ADSB on the GTX330ES means it is not receiving the ADSB data from the GNS-430W. When I test GTX330ES units I turn off the GNS unit and wait for this message, then turn on the GNS unit and watch for the message to disappear when the GNS goes GPS valid

    Upgrading GDL69 to GDL69A

    At a minimum you have to run a wire from the GDL to the audio panel. If you end up not using it I will buy it from you.

    GMX-200 repaired by Garmin (NOT)

    By interface issue I mean communication between you and your dealer, and your dealer and Garmin. Do you have a GDL69/69A, GTX345, GDL88 hooked up? Are they current SW? 2.14 is the current software. This is the kind of issue Trek should probably be brought in on.

    GMX-200 repaired by Garmin (NOT)

    That is 100% not true. The service work comes with a 6m warranty. This sounds like an interface issue between you and the Garmin dealer you are working with. I send in dozens of boxes to Garmin a month for repair, it does not happen often, but I do sometimes have to send a unit back for...

    Garmin 430

    Not sure what you mean. If you sent in a 28V non waas then they force you to upgrade. I send in WAAS and non WAAS units regularly for repair and upgrades. Like 2-3 times a week.

    Garmin 430 WAAS upgrade- what is actually done to the unit?

    You probably need to recalibrate the OBS. Should fix that.

    GNS430 Button backlight

    It may also be dimming off a photocell. You may need to go into Config mode and set the min dim level.
