Hello Bruce, You wrote: "Can you point me to the catalog locations or

I will try -- first a little basic information. The 430W and the SL30 both
put out and receive multiple signals to and from the 106A. So you need two
devices.
One device is a relatively simple push to activate switch on the instrument
panel which shifts the pilot's navigation choice from one source (430W) to
the other (SL30) or vice versa. This device should also have a light
indication on it to show which choice has been made.
The other device is remotely activated, more complicated, and it consists of
many relays and contact points that when activated by device number one
shifts all of the many signal paths between the 430W, the SL30, and the
106A.
There are multiple manufacturers and sources for both device one and device
two so one can shop around for their preference and purchase sources.
Here is a source for device one:

Here are some sources for device two:
http://www.sandia.aero/?q=SR64
http://www.trast-aero.com/eng/catalog/view.php?ModelId=401
These two sources are not intended to give you "ready to buy" information,
but rather to show you what kinds of devices you are looking for and some
possible items to purchase. It will take some leg work on your part to
discover the best devices for your use and the best sources to purchase them
from.
Perhaps other members on the list (Stein Bruch?) can also provide some more
specific choices / recommendations and sources.

PS: I have some Excel spread sheets that I made up that show my equipment
and the rather complicated wiring interconnections. If you think that they
might be of use to you please email me direct and I will send them to you
as email attachments.

Hi OC,
I am new to the list and saw this today. I am planning the same equipment ,
i.e.,
a 430W, SL30, and 106A. I am not familiar with the items you mentioned
about
switching back and forth. Can you point me to the catalog locations or
suppliers
with the correct items numbers? I'm pretty weak on the electrical stuff
although I reading up on it now(Bob Nuckolls book). Thanks for your help.
