Navworx ADS-B Hardware Update

Has anyone on the forum purchased and installed the supplimental hardware box for the Navworx 600EXP?

I don't want to be the 1st on my block to buy one as yet.

Like to see what $299.00 buys besides conformity to the FAA 2020 mandate.

I don't see the hardware advertised on either the navworx site or Dallas Avionics.

Re: Navworx ADS-B Hardware Update

Think of it this way...anything you have already spent is "sunk" cost. If you can become 2020 compliant for $299, that sounds like a bargain.

I completely understand and concur.However I was asking about the installation and funtionality of the hardware. Guess I didn't make that clear.

Even with the extra $300 it is still a bargain when added to the $1500 I origionally paid for the 600EXP. And as a mid air survivor, there is not too much money to spend to minimize a recurrence of that terror.

Re: Navworx ADS-B Hardware Update

Send me a Text at 770 eight Two three 3426 and I will send you a pic of the tech page that I picked up at OSH. I went ahead and ordered mine. They said shipping to start 8/15/17 but I wouldn t expect it before Oct. ( based on prior experience)., and will not be required until the first of the year as per the AD . Looks like a piggy back box, I assume a new position source, with DB9 jumper to the original and additional DB9 provided on the new box.

Thanks, but your email address was a bit obscure with no at sign so I'll send you mine. Would really like to see the hardware.
