Final Approach
Does anyone have experience with or know of a site that has screenshots etc... of the cheaper XM skywatch subscription radar picture? Its $10 a month vs $30 and the activation fee is $15 vs $50.
I just want to get a decent, reliable radar picture while in flight. above 2,500 feet you can't really trust 3G.
I have a portable marine GPS. A 436 or something like that, looks exactly like the aviation 496 unit and I bet its got the same internals.. think I could somehow flash the aviation software on it, or get a garmin tech to do this?
Anyway i can pick up an xm antenna for the marine GPS for about $140. For something i'll probably only need twice a month, its kinda hard justifying $30 a month plus a $50 activation fee.
