THE WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES CONTAINED HEREIN ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN
LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY LIABIL­ITY ARISING UNDER WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICU­LAR PURPOSE, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE. THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC

NOTE: The GTX 320A owner accepts all responsibility for obtaining

F

the proper licensing before using the transponder.

NOTE: The coverage you can expect from the GTX 320A is limited

F

to “line of sight”. Low altitude or aircraft antenna shielding by the
aircraft itself may result in reduced range. Range can be improved
by climbing to a higher altitude. It may be possible to minimize
antenna shielding by locating the antenna where dead spots are
only noticed during abnormal fl ight attitudes.

CAUTION: The GTX 320A should be turned off before starting or

I

shutting down aircraft engine(s).
