Hello from Stark Avionics.
Hello all!
My name is Tony Skahan. I manage Stark Avionics. Some of you might know me already. I'm not exactly sure how this forum works. I don't know if I will be notified in some way if someone would like to ask a question of me. So please be patient with me as I learn this process.
Most of our customers know already that we will do whatever we can to assist you "after the sale" if you are having technical issues. I would say that the majority of the issues deal with the configuration of new avionics. As many of you may know, it is rather difficult to troubleshoot problems over the phone or via email. The ideal situation would be for us to be present at your airplane. Of course, that's not really an option. But, we will continue to strive to do our best in assisting you with your projects in whatever way we can.
John and I have a wide ranging experience in many different types of avionics systems and airframes. We are always willing to share information with all of you in the effort to get your plane up and flying.
Thank you for reading this. I hope there will be other posts to follow as time goes on.
Tony Skahan

Garmin 530W Problems
Hi Tony,
This is John R out in Arizona. Remember me? I'm the guy that got the terrain function DOA from Garmin on my 530W, followed by the antenna and latch difficulties.
Finally got it all sorted out! Thanks again for your extrordinary customer service!

Tony,
Thanks for providing access to great products at a price us homebuilders can afford. I have not purchased anything yet but I have checked your prices and you guys rock! I have heard nothing but the best from the people here about your service and all the work you put into the wiring harnesses and such.
Love the email autoresponder quotes too!

Tony,
A few years ago, I purchased an avionics package from Stark and installed it in my 6A. Your price could not be beat anywhere. In part, that was because at the time, your profit margin was so thin you did not accept plastic which in turn would force you to pay the credit card companies their tribute. I respect that.
Just yesterday I received a quote from John that was fully $450 less than the price for the same avionics package available in Van's catalog. John was so straight up to suggest I could buy comm and transponder antennas at a cheaper price from another source. You can be sure I will place another order with Stark Avionics soon. In the meantime, I hope to see you here often just to let us know what's going on in the ever changing world of avionics.

Great Service
I purchased most of my avionics from Stark. The service before and after purchase was excellent. I was able to purchase my trays first and get them installed. Then, about 6 weeks before flying, I ordered the actual radios. This way I didn't burn up the warranty sitting on the shelf.
I am not an electronic type of person and they were great on what must have been some stupid questions.
