Hi All,

I wonder if some among you have any experience with
the Avidyne TAS610 or the L3 Skywatch HP.

This would be connected to an OP Technologies EFIS in a 4PT
I'm interested to know how the systems perform.

The Avidyne has a 2 antenna system and their sales blurb state this is the best way to go
as it gets around the problem of the aircraft shadowing the antenna, thus giving best coverage and performance.

The L3 crowd say the single 4 pole antenna system performs better than a two antenna system
because in a 2 antenna system, both antenna need to see the traffic for it to give an accurate bearing.

Perhaps there are other issues at play.

Who likes what and why?
Where does the truth lie?
