Altitude Call Out is COOL
Okay, so I finally figured out how to turn the XM radio off without
killing all audio output from the 496. (It's not as easy as it should be...) This has enabled us to finally hear the little "Southwest Airlines" chime, followed by bitchin' Betty purring "Altitude...500 feet..." through our headphones. Call me silly, and I honestly can't think of a real use for this feature (since I fly VFR) -- but it's still WAY up there in the cool factor levels. Feels like we're flying the heavy iron, now! ;-) -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"
