The KT 76A has established a worldwide reputation as the standard in Mode A/Mode C identification. Since its introduction, more than 165,000 KT 76 and KT 76A transponders have been installed worldwide.
 
The KT 76A is a Class 1A transponder providing maximum performance at altitudes up to 35,000 feet. This compact unit was among the first of our avionics to incorporate Large Scale Integrated (LSI) circuitry, reducing both weight and power requirements. And today, its design efficiency and rugged construction offer a near-ideal balance of performance, reliability and value.
 
A Closer Look
All Mode A and Mode C transponders perform the same functions: replying to radar interrogations, providing Air Traffic Control (ATC) with positive identification, and showing your ground speed on the controller’s radar monitor. With an encoding altimeter or blind encoder, the transponder can also transmit altitude. 
 
The KT 76A combines an extra-rigid, durable switchboard with easy access to all components. Unlike other transponders the 76A can be opened like a book to expose every part and printed circuit board—significantly reducing maintenance costs and downtime. Inside the KT 76A, “solder masked” printed circuit boards provide trouble-free connections and ensure that all leads are fully insulated, protecting against overheating of components during manufacturing.
 
While other transponder manufacturers solder their LSI chips in place, the KT 76A’s encoder and decoder functions are programmed into a plug-in LSI chip, making repair as simple as pulling out one chip and replacing it with a new one.
 
While the IDENT button is readily accessible on the front of the faceplate, a remote button can also be installed in an even more convenient location, such as the control yoke, to reduce pilot workload during busy approaches or departures. It is this attention to detail that makes the KT 76A one of the most successful transponders in general aviation history

2012 Audi R8 facelift, more power & S-tronic ‘box

Tue, 26 Jul 2011

Audi R8 getting a facelift - and more power - in 2012 The supercar with a mainstream car maker’s badge attached that is the Audi R8 has been something of a success as a halo car for the Audi range since it arrived in V8 form in 2007 (well, probably 2008 by the time most customer cars turned up). Since the original V8 R8 arrived we’ve had an absolute deluge – in supercar terms – of R8 models from Audi including the R8 V8, R8 V8 Spyder, R8 V10, R8 V10 Spyder and the rather costly R8 GT and R8 GT Spyder. But through that time the engines – apart from in the R8 GT – have remained the same, as has the woeful R-Tronic gearbox.

One Lap of the Web: Auto pics, a pretty Ferrari and rallies

Who can forget the wild days of Group B? Lancia's wild 037 was the last rear-wheel-drive monster to win a championship in the WRC, doing so in 1983. Our friends at Automobiliac have a great video of a bunch of 037s doing their thing at a historic rally.

BMW X3 xDrive35d & xDrive20i revealed: UK gets X3 xDrive35d

Sat, 06 Aug 2011

2012 BMW X3 Update: UK specs and prices added at the bottom – thanks BMW UK. The new BMW X3 is turning in to something of a star for BMW, as we discovered when we recently reviewed the latest X3, but the reveal of the 2012 BMW X3 X3 xDrive35d for the UK should make the X3 even more appealing. BMW has actually revealed two new X3s for 2012, but the UK won’t be getting the X3 xDrive20i because BMW UK has decreed that X3s in the UK are going to be diesel only.
