Having a stand alone receiver and display that could be placed in a tower cab is a bit too innovative and agile for the "system".
Tootle pip!!
I thought about that. However, the original question seems to be what is required for a minimal system (not even failure proofed). So we can see that for a few hundred dollars, you could have a system that works. An experienced technician could probably assemble such a system in an hour. But lets be generous and say it took a day, 7 hours @ $100/hr, so lets say it could be assembled boxed and shipped for that. Then we are looking at $1k.
Anything that CASA or AsA demands beyond that is a compliance cost and needs to be justified.
