The GTX-327 is Garmin's best Mode C Transponder. It lacks the GTX-330's TIS traffic features, or the ADS-B capability of newer Transponders. However, it you are using other avionics for ADS-B (or are not subject to this mandate), the GTX-327 is an excellent unit, with many helpful convenience features. The GTX-327 produces 200 watts of transmission power, offering long range and operation up to 50,000 feet. Plus, the GTX-327 does this without a cavity. As a result, reliability is improved, and no warm-up time is needed before operation. The GTX-327 features: Large, easy-to-read digital display Numeric keypad for easy squawk entry Dedicated VFR button to squawk 1200 Count up and count down timers Displays pressure altitude from your encoder 4096 discrete codes Mode C compatibility System test capability TSO'd The GTX-320A and GTX-327 are interchangeable. They use the same mounting rack and connector / installation kit. However, the GTX-327 includes additional features (squat switch detection and RS-232 communication) which use connector pins that the GTX-320A does not use. If upgrading from a GTX-320A to a GX-327, a small amount of installation would be needed to utilize these pins for the GTX-327. You may also be interested in an Encoder to use with this GTX-327. When installed with an Encoder, the GTX-327 will report both your position and altitude to ATC (Mode C).
