In addition to the Garmin 300XL I have a SL-30. My 300XL is very weak. The SL-30 blows it away. I have swapped antennas and tested the coax cable. I purchased this radio used from a vendor, but the warranty is expired. The NAV functions flawlessly. Although I have received replies when transmitting to ATC nearby, I'm leery when transmitting in the blind over unicom etc. There is a 1.57542 ghz notch filter installed at the back of the radio. There is no performance change with or without the filter installed.
I'm curious if there is a way to test the filter. What type of performance do others have using this radio.
Thanks
