New Transponder for us

What Darryl said. You might like to know that the avionics technician who did my VFR transponder checks went to his computer and got the proper ICAO code from the FAA. The reason is the "S" in Mode S stands for selective, and they want to be darn sure ATC is broadcasting to the proper aircraft. All seems very reasonable and I would have no intention of using an incorrect ICAO address. Did your technician also check that the transmitted registration number, which seems to be a separate data entry on the TT21, was correct? Andy
