I thought the FARs explicitly prohibited the transponder.

What happened to your mantra from years past...

The transponder connected to the #1 circuit breaker
The circuit breaker connected to the battery bus
The battery bus connected to the #2 circuit breaker
The circuit breaker connected to the landing light

-owner maintenance.

It prohibits it under the "remore and replace radios" clause.
However, if we're diagnosing faults in the landing light circuit....
