The TAS6XX will display tail number information if the following requirements are met:
  1. U.S. registered aircraft
  2. The target aircraft must have a Mode S Transponder
  3. Avidyne display

I guess the TAS605 also is capable of displaying the N numbers according to the Avidyne website functionality for the TAS605:

I went on my second flight with my new IFD 540 today.  I noticed several times that some traffic was shown with tail numbers.  I have a TAS 605 installed but did not think that it was capable of receiving tail numbers. Where is this information coming from?

I have a picture, I just cannot figure out how to post it.
