The FASVIG organisation has been gathering data on transponders that support
uncertified
GPS for ADD-B.
Located on the website : http://fasvig.org
It's worth a read before investing in a transponder replacement or upgrade.

- the Americans probably won't want it as ADS-B is soon to be mandated there)
and getting an alternative like the Trig unit would seem to be the best option.
It won't surprise me if Garmin withdraw the upgrade to make people buy their
new Xpdrs anyway . . .
