NARCO Com 120 question
By the way, did you put an entry in your airframe log? Even if it wasn't
an FAA issue, it would probably be helpful to have the model and serial number recorded just in case it ever gets stolen. Yep! -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

It seems the Com120s I have noticed on eBay will bring $250 to $400 depending on condition... How do you like the Narco 810R? I have an MX11 as my Com #2, and have considered swaping it for the 810R. It apears the trade would cost me about $1050 to $1200 assuming the MX11 would net back $450 to $600. My avionics shop is quoting me $1050 installed for a KY97a, with leaves a $500 to $600 dollar difference, again depending on the value of the MX11..... The King looks better everytime I speak to someone at NARCO (called again last week with a problem with my NAV122)... I know you had to have weighed various options as well. What made you decide in favor of the 810R? Thanks in advance Joe |

I know you had to have weighed various options as well. What made you
decide in favor of the 810R? I was strongly in favor of the buying the Garmin 250 or 300 XL -- the GPS/Com -- to replace my venerable Narco 120. I was, in fact, checking them out in Oshkosh, with the intent to purchase one. However, when I ran across "God's Own 'handheld' color GPS" -- the C-Map "AvMap" -- and purchased it, I realized that I really didn't need yet *another* GPS on board. (After the first two, what's the point? So, Mary and summed up our needs, and it all came down to wanting the digital flip-flop and memory pre-sets. The 810 +R fit that need, to a "T" -- and didn't require anything more than an allen wrench to accomplish. So far it's been great! Ask me again in year or two. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
