    The "old" GTX 320 was working fine and has the same form factor as the buttony ones. Since I rarely touch or look at the thing after entering a code I didn't really see the need to drain the additional $. Plus, the avionics shop, who would have made some extra on the upgrade, told me the...

    Aspen OAT probe - major issues
