Used transponders cost more than they are worth and transceivers can be a
problem if not operational.Repair is available but getting harder to
find.The transmitter cavity in the transponder can go bad and replacement
is more than the unit is worth.For that reason the 40 year old KT-76 I sold
was cheap because it is very likely on the edge of oblivion with each turn
on.Transponders are tested every 2 years regardless of IFR or VFR
operation.The pitot/static system and encoder are tested for accurracy for
IFR cert. only.The VFR test doesn't care if the altimeter is correct or
not.Your VFR.Tommy W.
