Apollo GX-55 and SL-40 question

There are plenty of avionics shops who have done a terrible job on
GX55, GX60, GX50, SL30, etc installs. The net result is only about
half of the software features of the units are hardware enabled.

That's sure the truth. The shop that installed my GX60 had the plane
in/out of their shop for almost 9 months, and never did finish. With the
GX60 plugged into the rack you (quite literally) have to hold your mouth
right in order to hear either the ADF or the #1 Comm. The RFI from the
GX60 allows me to play them like a tremlo.

Damn, that sucks. I haven't had any real problems with my GX-60 install,
except for a minor mis-wire of the speaker wire (which I don't use
anyway). Of course, I studied the install manual myself, and had complete
wiring diagrams for my existing avionics (which I drew), and I drew a
complete wiring diagram for the tech to use to install my GX-60, including
exactly how I wanted things grounded, shielded, etc.
