Default Future of 480

Hell yes! Our KX-170B (installed as Nav/Comm 2) works much better than our
fancy new Narco with DME. Damn thing is bullet proof. Pics up stations 40
miles farther out than the Narco. Obsolete it may be, but it's sure
servicable.

The Mark 12D+ was an unserviceable piece of crap from the day it
was released. We had a ship in our club that was down more often
than it flew because it had a full NARCOLEPTIC stack in it.
