Radios
Does anyone know what's happening to all those non 8.33 radios? Are they just going into the skip? I could make use of one, and thus save it from destruction.

We got cash back on our KX165 which has a market value in the United States. I regret having had it taken out of the aeroplane as the Garmin 255 isn't nearly as good, in my opinion, but it's the only 12v COM/NAV available, I believe, without going for a more expensive GPS option. My main issue with the Garmin is the audio quality, even though it's also going through a Garmin audio panel.

Thanks to the two kind people who have sent me private messages, but I think you can probably get a better deal than me.
The request was the result of a discussion in the clubhouse, when we were moaning again about the ancient - probably 1950s - Narco radio that we use as a receiver. It occurred to me that avionics companies might be piling up old stuff - stuff that's too old for resale in the US - and thinking "skip". It seems terrible to just chuck stuff......
thanks again
