Jon: What is an "AMU"? Thanks for the edification. Leo

Google gave me this: http://www.mooneyevents.com/acronyms.html

The site is specific to Mooneys, but the term applies to all aircraft ;-)

Has anyone used any of the passive traffic alert systems that are out on
the market today? I saw this one on AircraftSpruce sight .4 AMU's
instead of the usual .8 AMU's. I did some searching and found out that
this particular model is discontinued hense the half-price sticker.

Has any of you flown with this kind of device and how do you think it
does for spotting traffic I flew with a guy last year that had this
exact model in his 182 and it seemed to work well.

Here is a link to the specs:
