Thanks Mike, I think that "sort of" answers my question, but I'm not
really sure, so let me be more specific with how I would like to set up the
panel in my RV-7. You seem to know something about this...
I intend to use the GNS 430 as my all-in-one GPS/VOR/ILS/COMM radio
because it can handle ALL the necessary Nav functions, and because of that,
I'm only wanting to install an SL-40 (COMM only) as my second radio.
I am going to install the 106A CDI for my primary glideslope indicator,
but I'm also using a dual EFIS system from Grand Rapids Tech. which includes
the capability of displaying an electronic HSI alongside the PFD screen.
So what I would like to do is have the 106A CDI set to display the
VOR/ILS portion of the GNS 430 signal, and the EFIS HSI to display the GPS
output portion of the GNS 430. Of course, if I can do that, I should also be
able to choose which indicator displays which signal from the 430 and switch
whenever I want. As you might imagine, I would want to use one display for
primary navigation and the other for checking radials.
Having explained it like this, is that still do-able?

Yes, if the second indicator can accept composite signals (or you could us
a
converter). The second indicator will only get the VOR/LOC/ILS data since
GPS data is not put out in composite format.

I have just one question for you Garmin GNS 430 owners:
The 430, of course, can output both GPS and VOR data to a CDI
indicator.
However, what I'm wondering, is if you have two CDI's, can the 430 run
both
of them at the SAME TIME.. one CDI set to GPS output and the other CDI
set
to VOR output?
TIA,
MJC
