Paul:
I talked to the Microair guy at Sun and Fun about the 4 watt issue.
He related that they are planning on introducing a new unit at
Oshkosh. I believe he said that the new unit will have a variable output I
understand it will put out 5 watts or 10 watts at the flick of a switch.
They also have a trasponder that fits in the same sized small hole that their
radio fits in.

Subject: radios etc
Just starting to think about planning a panel and have found the
recent
thread concerning ebgine instruments very useful. Along the same lines,
are
there any opinions out there (can't believe there aren't) about suitable
VHF
equipment. In particular there has been quite a bit of marketing around
the
MICROAIR VHF transiever which seems a good price and weight.
However it
does quote a 4 watt transmit power as compared to 7 to 10 in other
units
I've seen. Is this an issue. If anyone has thoughts about this
particular
piece of equipment, radios in general or knows of any good (though
fairly
bascic) source of information on radio installations I would be grateful
to
hear.
Thanks in advance
