I have a PA28 with a basic panel. I have one Michel TKM 170C Nav/Com radio, a transponder, and an old Trimble GPS that I don't use. My plane currently only has headphone jacks for the pilot. Nothing for copilot or passengers. I recently purchased a Garmin GMA340 audio panel that I haven't installed yet.
I'm looking at the best way to do some panel upgrades that, hopefully, won't break the bank. Used equipment is an option.
Does anyone have any recommendations on what would be the best equipment to add? I'm a newbie VFR pilot.
It seems to me that the first thing I should consider is adding a second radio. Should I add a second \ TKM 170C Nav/Com, something else, or should I add a Nav radio only such as the Garmin SL40? Is it better to go with older avionics such as the SL40 someone has pulled out for an avionics upgrade or should I go with new?
Does anyone have any thoughts on what would be the best equipment to add?
All thoughts are appreciated.
