Can anyone recommend a good repair shop for the KX-125? My local shop on the eastern shore of Maryland no longer works on it.

If anyone wants to sell me their old KX-125... that would do the trick too!

Bevan-Rabell is a very reputable repair shop. I have used them several times, always good results.

A local avionics tech has indicated to me that repair parts not readily available.

He is retired from decades at OZARK RADIO Spirit of St Louis ARPT.

It may be a deliberate "starve out". Upgrade to very expensive "glass".

Rules are being rewritten at airports to prevent these independents from being on the airport property.
FBO is paying monthly lease payments. Indepents drive up , do the work and go into the FBO to wash their hands
and leave. No infrastructure cost.

Drives up cost of serviceable used avionics.

Well... bit of good news - the unit is good to go. Bench testing reveals it's within spec. Time to start looking at connectors and cables...
