  I just got my IFD 540 back after it had to be returned to AVIDYNE when the GPS portion of the unit just quit working. Anyway, unit came back in working order with latest mods and flew it home today. Unfortunately no Traffic info (even though lots of traffic on foreflight) I had an amber ADSB degraded error message on the traffic thumbnail. I have an MLB100 and AXP340 txpndr. I took pics of the setup screens. Does anyone see anything wrong with the setup? TISB weather worked perfectly. Thanks |

ADS-B Degraded indicates the receiver has not yet gotten a
good enough GPS lock to update its
internal clock or there is a problem with
the ADS-B receiver’s GPS position. Is your MLB100 (SkyTrax100) up to date as well? ------------- Simpson Bennett Avidyne Corporation Product Manager |

| Occasionally, I get a "DGRD" notation on traffic that I see... that's not the same issue as this one is it? Both my IFD440s have solid locks on GPS satellites... |

| Simpson, I do have the latest MLB100 Software and it is also now talking to the IFD with 232 vs 429. Everything is working great now that I go the unit back from Avidyne but just the no traffic issue. |
