The bird is currently wearing a 6-probe CHT, 1-probe EGT setup from Westach - the kind with a rotary switch to select cylinder display. It’s gonna largely inop...which will be probed (no pun intended) during the upcoming annual.
The real solution is to rip a bunch of these gauges from my panel in install a CGR-30 or JPI 930 setup...but other areas of the plane need $6k before this area does.
I can, of course, swap out this entire setup for around $350 and get new parts, but it still leaves me in manual/analog mode for gauge and selector. Does anyone know of a probe-compatible update to this old-school setup, that’s not also cost-prohibitive (and thus veering into the financial space of a JPI 700)?
