I have the Trig unit. I blew it up when I installed it!! Completely my fault I
sent it back and they fixed it straight away at no cost even though they knew
it was because I am an idiot. 

I was concerned that it would be harder to set with 1 knob rather than 4. I have
found it much easier and just 1 button to go back to 7000.

My squawk is always seen. 

What more could you ask for?

as to the requirements for Mode S. My first question is do I really need to
have it in the UK for VFR flights? What about flying on the continent?  There
is much info on the web but it looks like there are a lot of exceptions to the
rules for VFR flights in our airplanes.

this unit?
