Suggest you find another mechanic. IIRC, there is no requirements for TSO or PMA COM radios for your type of flying. But, you may want to think twice about your selection. The guy who owns that company has been promising paperwork for a number of years to the folks who have already plunked down the cash, instead of admitting he doesn't have the desire or funding to get it. If that's the COM radio, for just about the same money you could have a King or ICOM (they're the same, you know), and a little more will get you a used GPS Comm. Mount it to the underside of the panel. If it's the transponder, then you have problems. Go for a real one. Keep us posted. Al ----- Original Message ----- From: "James B.
