When I designed my panel I decided to use a 496 for XM weather and a backup GPS instead of getting the GRT weather option.
Now that I'm flying, I find the 496 very hard to read due to glare where I've got it mounted (right next to the rollbar) and I'm re-thinking using the GRT weather.
When I saw the GRT weather set up a couple of years ago at S-n-F, I thought their weather add-on was quite large but my memory is a bit fuzzy on this.
What does it take to add weather to an existing H-1? How big is the WxWorx antenna compared to the XM antenna? I don't really have space to add any thing behind my panel.
