Default Any pireps for PCAS MRX collision avoidance system?

Did you have
a transponder on board?

Yep, I installed a Becker transponder, encoder and PCAS, last winter.
Cost me less than $3000 bucks and I feel a whole lot better about
aviating around Reno, NV. I'm amazed at whats going on out there that
I didn't know about, I let Reno approach know where I'm at and they
seem appreciative, I see other sailplanes before they enter my thermal
and I see the occaasional Cessna pass too close every now and then.
Beats being bent around the nose of a Hawlker! I'm running a 12v,12ah
battery with everything on Im pulling less than 1 amp and don't drop
below 12v for 5 hours. Got a back-up 7ah, just in case and everything
fits in my panel. Life is good.....................Minden regionals in
2 weeks...................come join us.
