Are there any in panel devices which display altitude encoder data?

I've seen this information from transponders and Gps's.

Thanks

I know I've seen them for sale I can't think of where at the moment.


But, since you are in RAH here's one you can build.

That's interesting. I have never heard of someone being ticketed for
drifting off altitude. Has this ever happened to anyone here?

I hadn't ever heard of that bit either and meant to mention it.

The Davtron 5-Function Indicator displays the pressure altitude direct from
the encoder.
