I'm New Here
New to me aircraft from serial builder. The plane is awesome.
Trig 22 w/ 72 as the source.
10 flights with it. No one can see a secondary on me.
Talked to Bruce at Trig yesterday. We went through all the settings together. They are all "good". Checked the antenna is connected.
Am I missing something BIG PICTURE? If my track block data was wrong -- ok, solvable --- but not seeing me at all? Bruce assured me all is well. But it's certainly not (went over to my local tracon and got an education...). Am I supposed to do some special mystical process the first time to get it going?
Bruce indicated to me that because we are seeing a GPS location when i go through the FN operations that indicates the antenna is good to go, that the GPS and transponder antenna are the same (if i was understanding him correctly).
Went out today with newfound confidence -- and no joy. Any thoughts on what to troubleshoott next?
I have read a whole lot and learned a whole lot over the years on this forum, i believe it is likely the hands down best avionics forum on the planet. Thank you in advance.
