I think you're saying you didn't buy the companion MX20 Multi-Function Display?
I did. You are right. It's VERY neat!

In your case, I might just leave the autopilot locked up on the course while I was
monitoring the cross-bearing. My HSI would alert me to any discrepancies.

No, I did not purchase the MX20. Not really enough real estate on the
panel of a 1965 Mooney for that, to say nothing of the fact that it would
only add a small fraction of it's cost to the value of the a/c.

I also don't have roll-steering; and my HSI is non-slaved. I even had to
keep my ADF so I could receive the altimeter setting at my local airport.
But I was able to ditch my DME, and one of my KX155's.

But I really really like the CNX80.
