I don't see the problem with this as uAvionix is supplying the echoAlt, wi
ring harness, and firmware upgrade for FREE. That should take care of any F
AA issues.

If I had to guess, they are position themselves to discontinue it. I'm sad
to see that option go since it seems to be the only one on the market that
works with exiting transponders like the GTX-327.=C2- Also I'm not a fan
of using products that require you to use more products from the same compa
ny to get the job done.=C2- The EchoUAT was somewhat freedom from that. T
heir alternative is to use the tail beacon X ($2500), which is only ADS-B O
ut, then having to purchase a AV20 or AV30 to operate it if you elect to st
ay within their product line.=C2- I'm not sure what other options are out
there controlling the tail beacon x.
What are others doing for an ADS-B in/out solution?=C2- I now have a GTX-
327 that I probably wont use now.=C2- :(
The EachoUAT has its flaws but it fills a gap without much equipment change
nicely. Most of those flaws could be corrected with software upgrades, but
also some hardware to boost the power etc....=C2- Startup idea anyone? :
)
I like the part, "FAA is no longer comfortable with ... the reporting of ba
rometric altitude by the transponder..." I built a solution to this problem
a few months ago and Emailed Uavionix about it but never got a reply.=C2

CARUS.=C2- Funny enough they came out with an EchoALT.
Some say just get the NGT-9000 and be done with it,=C2- but at over $6k..
..sure sure.
