John, I'd like to take you up on your offer. I will give you a call to set something up.

Not sure how to determine whether mine is the Garmin or the Apollo version - both names appear in the documentation. Will investigate.

Thanks!

I have an SL-30 in my RV8 and I had to do the same thing earlier to confirm operation.

I am based at Gastonia KAKH just west of CLT. If you want to come over I'll be happy to help. Confirm your unit is a Garmin and not the Apollo version. I was not able to get an Apollo SL-30 to seat in my Garmin SL-30 rack. Everything looked the same but the Apollo would not fit and the Garmin would.

Anyhow if you need me give me a call

I just returned from trip out west in my RV10 N215TG. Just before landing at the absolute furthest point away from home, my SL30 stopped working (partially). Fortunately I have a G430 with Comm to back it up thought that required a bit of work to make work.

Anyway, I'm back home in Durham (Lake Ridge 8NC8) and need to swap my SL30 with a working SL30 to confirm it's disfunction. Once I send it in to Garmin, I understand it will cost $800 no matter what they find so I want to make sure it's not working.

Does anyone have a working SL30 that I can fly to and do a momentary swap with. I can pretty much assure you that my installation won't damage ycoour unit. In fact, my SL30 powers up, tunes freqs, and otherwise appears to be working. But it won't communicate.

The only other culprit could be the PMA 9000 EX. Hopefully a swap will narrow it down to one or the other.

Thanks in advance,
Bill Watson

Hi Bill, one other option for you. We have a RV7a at lake Norman (14A) with an SL-30. Our plane was built in 2004-2005. If John’s does not work out for you, you have another option on your way home. Plus, we have several people in the hangar that would love to see an RV10 up close!

John, correction to my previous note. It looks like an SL30 swap opportunity has come up that is much closer to me so I'm going to try to pursue that.

Thanks for the offer. I may be back to you if this doesn't work out.

Dwight, thanks much for your offer.

I can come down to TTA or if it works for you, dropping by my
home/hangar in Durham would be great. Lake Ridge is less than 20 mins
from anywhere in RTP.

I'm very flexible time wise, just let me know what works best for you
and we'll do it.

Thanks again,
Bill Watson

Bill,

I have an SL-30 you could use as a test, if nobody has coughed up one
already. I'm based at TTA (though the SL-30 is in an
under-construction plane in the fuselage sitting in my garage). I work
in RTP, so a detour to 8NC8 after work isn't completely unreasonable.
Another alternative would be to meet at TTA for a quick test. Let me
know what works for you and we'll make a plan.
