... KX-155 Aircraft Radio ... gentlemen, and ladies, I hate to use my IG page for something personal, but in this case I am. I need a couple of decent old school KX-155 12Volt radios and know some of y'all have yanked them out of your planes in your quests for glass cockpits. I need a couple of 'em. Go drag it out of your hangar and ship it to my shop with my name on it and a reasonable Christmas wish list. Thanks in advance for the legwork 🛫 ML

- txstvanwilder @laruetactical currently just have an old narco com here in the shop, I'll take a look and see what we have out of our Baron to see if we still have a 155 laying around in our personal hangar. 1 like
- txstvanwilder @laruetactical no joy. I have a bunch of random things, but not a 155. Check North Texas Aviators page on FB and NTA Marketplace, someone might have one close by to you. 1 like
- txstvanwilder @laruetactical check TexasAirSalvage dot com. They have quite a few on their website available. Or call up Tim and Lucky at Air Salvage of Dallas.
davidtripp0924 I've got a lead on one. It'll cost me about 1/2 of what a big block UU costs 1 like

c.s.mayberry Sir, that is clearly a Flux Capacitor.
axtsdream Interesting 🤔 I also like Aviation radios ! I usually sit in my Balcony listening to my local airport out here in San Bernardino! Lots of Amazon, UPS, FedEx and Fire department traffic! Good luck ! 🍀
- laruetactical @axtsdream ... I need 'em for some aging, but still awesome Navions 4 likes

davidewade Got an old Cessna radio that I replaced with a KX155 back in '91.
wtt_racing_engines I thought I had some that were yellow tagged but they weren't 155's
joewarner6336 You scared me!, for a second I thought one of my Bo guys was wanting one fixed.

andrew.meriwether @laruetactical... I'll see what I can do. 24v systems I'm assuming? I work for an aviation company that does avionics. 1 like

- sukdriver @laruetactical also glide slope or no GS? Kings Avionics or Beven Rabel can probably repair your current KX155's.
- laruetactical @sukdriver ... No glide slope will work just fine. I have to climb up to pattern altitude every time I land at a blacktop airport. 1 like
