Has anyone installed the newer GDL 69A SXM receiver to be used with their IFD? I’m using the older GDL69A with one of the Aviator packages but I’m told that the Pilot Preferred package with the GDL 69A SXM will display the new base radar that is available in the Southern Bahamas. Until this radar became live about a year ago, it wasn’t possible to see radar in the South Bahamas. Avidyne isn’t sure if the IFD will display this so I’m wondering if anyone has installed it and uses the Pilot Preferred package could confirm this for me. I’d hate to install the new GDL 69A SXM only to find out I get nothing more than I have now.
