No longer need this excellent and small PCAS as its functions are

IMO, no question the PF is the best answer for practical collision
avoidance in gliders. But if for whatever reason you won't be buying
one, then this Zaon MRX is the next best thing for a whole lot less
money. The MRX sells new for $450 - $499. Mine is line new, less than
20 hours, with all original packaging and manual for only $300 plus
$12 shipping in US.

Bumper,

Have you flown with both units at the same time? *If so, do you have
any comments on the relative performance for proximate traffic and
alerting? *I've been flying with the MRX for several years and hope
that PF brick will replace it but have not seen any (PCAS function)
performance reports yet.

I have been flying with MRX for a long time and I am not willing to
part with it until I see PF is as good as MRX.
