BHelman,
The Monroy doesn't account for altitude, so when you have a 737 flying overhead thousands of feet up the Monroy would be screaming bloody murder. Clearly, you haven't flown with the unit. This statement couldn't be more wrong. The antenna characteristics are such that traffic being more than 1500 or 2000 feet different in altitude will not be annunciated. Altitude has NEVER be a problem for us in actual operation. Whenever you get a warning for traffic close enough to be visible, when scanning outside in a sensible range, you'll spot that traffic, on our experience. Thus, I have looked at the vrx with interest from a gadget freak standpoint, but I don't think the altitude sensing would be worth that much money to me. I would, however, love to see the vr in action. -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH)
