Hey Guys,I have been following the dvelopment of the ADS-B techknowlgey that has been developing.With that in mind i was wondering what that meant to instruments tha i am using and actually love at the present time.

I wrote them a question about the latest out their futuupdates that they have listed on their web site and also about their future plans realitive to ADS-B instruments. The following is their responce.Thanks,Joe Horton ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- From: "Microair Repair" <rep...@microair.com.au> To: joe.kr2s.buil...@juno.com Subject: FW: General Enquiry from Joe Horton - Rev 8 / ADS-B List-Post: krnet@list.krnet.org Date: Tue, 1 Nov 2011 11:57:04 +1000
Greetings Joe, The Rev 8 upgrade is allows serial and parallel data to be transmitted to the T2K instead just using the parallel Gillham data. So unless you change to an encoder that requires serial data to be transmitted then there is no need to upgrade to a Rev 8. Regarding the ADS-B, we are not intending to go down that path at this point of time; however I know Freeflight sytems in the USA do. I have provided a link to their website that should be useful for you. http://www.freeflightsystems.com/ Regards, Microair Avionics Service Coordinator rep...@microair.com.au From: Microair Avionics WEB ENQUIRY [mailto:joe.kr2s.buil...@juno.com] Sent: Monday, 17 October 2011 2:44 AM To: Info Microair Subject: General Enquiry from Joe Horton Microair Avionics Enquiry Type: General Enquiry First Name: Joe Last Name: Horton Email: joe.kr2s.buil...@juno.com Organisation: Address: Phone: Mobile: Fax: Serial Number (for product enquiries): Comments: Should my unit be sent in for updates to rev.8, Is Microair doing anything for the ADS-B that the US is going req?
