Brexit
Due to the unknown effects of leaving the EU and the resulting volatile shipping and customs costs, we may contact you with price revisions even after you have made an order and paid. You can of course choose to be refunded if you do not wish to pay any extra. This will apply until legislation changes, or we can accurately reflect how individual product prices are influenced by the completion of Brexit. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

The TN72 GPS Position Source brings ADS-B Out capabilities to your Trig transponder. Light weight and easy to fit, the highly affordable TN72 uses certified technology making you visible to all ADS-B In traffic devices.
Flying in busy skies with a TN72 will reduce your risk of collision and improve flight safety. In the U.S. the TN72 used as your ADS-B Out solution will trigger a full traffic service uplink – received using ADS-B In equipment.
When using a TN72 there are two different ways to set up your Trig transponder (shown below). The TN72 hardware is the same in either installation.
TN72 GPS – X configuration uses SIL 3 in the transponder settings, and fully satisfies the technical requirements of FAR 91.227 for 2020 compliance. Light-sport, experimental and homebuilt pilots who have fitted a TN72 are now flying inside ADS-B airspace and have passed FAA compliance checks with flying colours.
TN72 GPS – TABS (Traffic Aircraft Beacon System) configuration uses SIL 1 in the transponder settings. TABS is the FAA technical standard that enables voluntary equipage of ADS-B Out. The TN72 using TABS is ideal for certified gliders and Part 23 aircraft, operating outside of U.S. 2020 rule ADS-B airspace as a means of enhancing visibility and triggering traffic.
In Europe and other countries, where the use of ADS-B equipment is voluntary, then the TN72 TABS configuration is the best way to remain visible to other traffic.
Installing a TN72 and suitable GPS antenna is a small price to pay for enhanced visibility and peace of mind.
