I just installed the entire G3x Touch suite in my EAB Rv-12, including the GDL39R receiver and the GTX23ES extended squitter transponder. I was told that with this equipment onboard I would have full functionality for ADS-B services, including FIS-B and TIS-B (including TIS-R) for the airspace around my airplane in flight. However, I read the following in the Pilot's Guide:
"Currently, rule-compliant ADS-B Out capability in the United States requires a
TSO?ed SBAS-enabled GPS, such as a Garmin GPS 400W or similar"
Since I do not have a TSO'ed GPS source in the aircraft (only the GTR200 COM radio), I obviously am not "fully compliant" with the 2020 ADSB rule, as I was told I would be. More important today, though, is whether I will be fully "participating" in all services.
