AFS - regarding the New Garmin GDL39, if I am receiving TIS traffic from my G3X system repeating into my AFS4500. Will I receive ADS-B traffic on the 4500 if I install the GDL39? I'm thinking the only wiring I have to do is the Garmin wiring and the connection for the current TIS will feed the ADS-B traffic into the 4500.

Thanks,

If it is the same format as the GTX330 then yes, I suspect that it is not.

Did you ever try it? Did it work?

I did install a GDL39, but since I don't have ADSb out capabilities I don't see enough traffic to see if the 4500 will display it.

I have seen TIS-B on my G3X, but if the traffic isn't close enough of course there is no way of telling if it would have displayed on the 4500. I suspect it will to display since Rob thinks the data is sent in a different format.

It's too bad since the 4500 when using TIS and my GTX 330 displays traffic perfectly!

It should work with TIS traffic format.
