It's all guesses on my part. They told us, when the sale took place,
that there would be no changes. Ending the OEM accounts is the first
change. They also got rid of my favorite rep.

I'm very confidant that the MX20 and CNX80 will be continued.
Probably also the SL-40 (since it's just an SL30 without the nav
side).

The GX family I'd guess will go, eventually. It's several years old,
now, and matched by things in the Garmin line. SL70 transponder is
hard to say, Garmin is going mode S, and their mode C transponders are
very impressive.

Audio panels and indicators, it almost doesn't matter, they're made by
third parties.

If anyone can find anything more, please let us know.
