Did you follow the below approach or hardwired it to Garmin to pin #20?
Other thing: Which size fuse did you use? I am thinking to power echoUAT + SKYFYX-EXT via Transponder / altitude encoder fuse, 5A.
Comments below are shared at Van's forum.
I would encourage anyone who desires to hardwire their Echo to their GTX transponder to try wireless first. It works great and doesn't require the complexity and hoop jumping the hardwire route takes. In other words treat an echo install with a GTX the same as pairing with any other legacy transponder installation. Do it wireless.
Multiple folks told that Transponder Threshold setting dialed in to 1100 or 1150: - "It took me 3 flights to get Transponder Threshold setting dialed in...finally got a good FAA ADS-B Performance report at 1150 as the Transponder Threshold setting."
- "Anyway, if someone doesn't beat me to it I'll be happy to post my settings. At Oshkosh 2019 I talked to the uAVIONIX folks at length about getting my setup working with the Garmin GTX327. The easiest way to tell if it's working is to "MONITOR" using the uAVIONIX APP while in flight to ensure that you can read your transponder code. At first that field was blank, and the resulting FAA Performance Reports cited a consistent MODE 3A error. In the end, all I had to do was lower the threshold by using the advanced section of the App. As someone mentioned, you must use two fingers on the App Title to open up that particular page. They'll tell you to lower your threshold by 50 units at a time until you can read the transponder code. In frustration I finally lowered the setting down to 1100 if I remember correctly and all of a sudden things worked and I received a perfect FAA performance report."
