Intermitant problems ARE hard to fix. Hard to fix it if it isn't
broken. I have a KX155 and it has been pretty solid. Also, avionics techs KNOW them and like to fix them. They know how to fix them. They are built to be repairable. They have individual components that can be changed. You don't have to "swap out a board". 70% of failures in electrical equipment are CONNECTIONS. I'd look there. Dave Butler wrote in message ... We're having some problems with our KX-155 where it intermittently stops navigating. Several attempts at repair have failed. A friend has a KX-155 that won't transmit. Another friend had a series of repairs on his KX-155. The conventional wisdom seems to be that the KX-155 is the gold standard in NAV/COMMs, but I have these anecdotal gripes. Are they the best there is? Thanks, Dave |

Is the repair history answer different for the KX-155A? ... and what's the difference (I guess I can google for that part). About 10 years or so. Ever look inside them? |

Is it a different generation of technology? I see the KX-155A is 28 volt only, so not very useful to me, anyway. DGB |
