NavWorx Developing ADS-B Transceiver For GA

Existing Receive-Only Units Will Be Eligible For Upgrades

NavWorx is currently developing ADS-B transmitter capability, which will be offered as an upgrade option for current ADS600 owners and integrated into the ADS600-B transmit and receive unit. The company announced Wednesday that FCC approval of the transmitter is expected shortly. Current ADS600 units function as receive-only devices, however, can be upgraded for two-way communication.

Two-way communication forms the foundation of the new NextGen air traffic control system called ADS-B, or Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast. The NavWorx ADS600 product line allows pilots to receive ADS-B signals including TIS-B traffic and FIS-B flight and weather information for display on a variety of devices. ADS-B signals are received from Air Traffic Control as well as other equipped aircraft. The new ADS600-B has the added capability of transmitting an aircraft's GPS-derived position, vector and speed. The benefits of ADS-B communications are improved air traffic safety and enhanced situational awareness for pilots. The NavWorx ADS600 line of products operate off an expanding network of ADS-B transmitters across the continental U.S., Gulf of Mexico, and Alaska.

The NavWorx product line consists of the ADS600 and PADS600, both ADS-B receivers designed for certified, experimental, and light-sport aircraft Standard upgrade pricing will be $1,000.00. Customers who purchased the remote-mounted ADS600, or portable PADS600, can upgrade with the transmitter for $600.00 through April 18, 2010. ADS600-B pricing will be $2,495.00. Customers who purchase the remote-mounted ADS600-B can do so for $2,120.75 before April 18, 2010. A fully refundable payment is required at the time of purchase. NavWorx is also offering 40-percent off its transmitter upgrade for the company's ADS600 ADS-B traffic and weather receiver for a limited time, as well as a 15-percent discount on its forthcoming ADS600-B transceiver unit. This new unit will incorporate both transmit and receive capabilities. To take advantage of these limited-time discounts, customers must make their purchase prior to April 18, 2010.
