I raised the question because I currently have an Apollo MX20 and Apollo GX60 in my panel and am considering
putting these out to pasture in favor of a GTN750, while keeping my Apollo SL30 and SL70. Years ago I built a marker beacon
receiver from a kit from RST Engineering and it's currently in the panel and consuming valuable real estate.
I expect that most of my approaches will be GPS based and Cat II & III will never be in my future.
So, is giving up a blinking panel light and a tone in my headset a serious safety issue?

A question for the glass guys here.
If you are executing an ILS approach, do I assume correctly that the OM/MM/IM are displayed as waypoints on the screen?
If so, is a marker beacon receiver redundant/no longer required?
