Default Pitot/Static/Transponder Problem

I was using Flight Following yesterday and was reminded of a problem that my
RV has displayed for a long time: The transponder and altimeter do not
agree. In general, ATC sees my altitude as about 200' lower than what is
shown on my altimeter.

A couple of facts:

- The transponder/encoder always pass their certification checks.

- The pitot/static system is installed per plans.

Any thoughts?
