WSI Weather users are going to have to switch to a Sirius receiver
sometime in the next year or so. The MX-20 has been updated with the
GMX-200. Is Chelton going to get their system to direct an autopilot
like the GNS 480 can?

What do you mean about the Chelton and Autopilot? The Chelton
is capable of driving the autopilot today, including the
vertical guidance following approaches. You can get more
more function with the Chelton + Digiflight IIVSGV than you can
with most systems. If you're happy with the Chelton being
your main Autopilot control, it's a good way to save lots of
money on an autopilot. If you need to do equivalent things
with a GNS-480, you have to spend a few thousand more to
get the Sorcerer...or at least the RV-10 AP if it's even
available today. I think Grand Rapids just caught up
in that they can do Vertical Guidance now too, but I don't
know this first hand.
Also, you're correct about the WSI Weather and Sirius. I was
a bit disappointed at first when they told me I'd need a new
receiver, but quickly recovered when the WSI rep let me know
that since I activated my receiver on an initial activation
and new plan in 2006 that I'd be getting a free AV300 receiver
and antenna. So it should at least be a reasonable upgrade
for me. I can't say that the MX-20 and other systems will
be the same painless thing though.
