Is there a way (other than purchasing a Sirius wx subscription) that I can get ADSB wx to my Garmin area 660?
My ADSB source is Stratus ESG and from what I hear Garmin products are pretty much designed only to talk to other Garmin products. Not unlike what Apple does.
If I had a Garmin ADSB Im told it would talk to my 660.
The 660 is hardwired to my Garmin 430 so when I enter a Flightplan thru my 430 it automatically puts the route on the 660.
I heard that FOREFLIGHT can share metars and TAFS thru the 679’s Bluetooth right from my iPad .
Is that correct?
So my FOREFLIGHT can and will share its ADSB derives wx with my 660?
help please ..
I’m pretty confused here…
If I need to buy another XM wx subdcription I will. What about the GDL UNITS byvGarmin? Will it talk to my 660?
if I get it will THAT send wx info thru Bluetooth or wirelessly to my area 660?
Is a GARMIN GDL unit the easiest way to go ?
Help I’m drowning in information overload here and need someone to simplify what I need to do to get wx on my 660 please?
Thanks Group
