Before I invest in voice recognition in the cockpit, I?ll need to be convinced that it works reliably. I have a 2006 Honda:
Me: ?Set temperature to 69.? Car:?AM radio 690? (promptly changes the radio)-:) |

Good luck with whatever choice you decide to go with. |

Did not know this, I use the GDL 39 and the 796 and get the "Traffic" audio but it is filtered for nearby traffic. I have an external audio input built into my intercom which I just use for music through a bluetooth dongle and I have foreflight on the phone so I could have it running in the cockpit just for traffic audio. If music is playing does the foreflight audio just overlay or interject? How does foreflight prioritize the audio when there is a bunch of traffic (think Ponca on Sat morning:eek:)? Figs |

The EFB's have to do all the math to figure out conflicts anyway, just to show you the red/yellow/green circles around your traffic... and they already have the position and altitude worked out. Might as well let them do the work. |

Just an FYI that the newer Garmin GTX 45R/345R/345 1090ES ADS-B Out transponders all have the more verbose (e.g. Traffic, 2 o'clock, high) voice annunciation common with the GTS 8XX active traffic system.
I have a GTX 345R in my aircraft, but didn't even bother wiring this audio into the audio panel since the simple traffic aural annunciation from the G3X Touch system more than meets my needs. With the great overlay of Target Trend traffic on the map and traffic page, I almost always see and avoid traffic with minimum scanning and don't often trigger the aural alert, so I don't see much advantage in having the more verbose aural traffic alert as an aid to visually locating traffic. Thanks, Steve |

I appreciate your position but having experience with it for a few months now I really appreciate the "verbose" alert. It really does enhance your traffic awareness. It gives a better starting point for looking for traffic. Even my wife was able to hear the specific warning and immediately look where the audio warning was telling us the traffic was. It really does work well. |

What about for the folks who don't have a G3X? Or for those who want a UAT with anonymous mode in 1200? Does Garmin offer any UAT's without a G3X that have the more verbose (e.g. Traffic, 2 o'clock, high) voice annunciation common with the GTS 8XX active traffic system? Does the GDL-88 provide this functionality at an equivalent level? |

Perhaps I didn't make this clear, but the GTX 45R/345R/345 ADS-B In/Out transponders provide the ?Traffic: 10 O?Clock, High or Low or Same Altitude, 2 miles.? type aural traffic alert regardless of what display is being used. In other words, a G3X system is not required to hear these alerts for the GTX 345/345R. And yes, the GDL 88 also provides this type of traffic aural alert. Thanks, Steve |
