The King KN-65A DME is a time-tested workhorse, but it is an old radio. We do not recommend the KN-65A for new installations, due to its size, weight, and older, less-reliable technology.
The best use for the KN-65A is to replace an existing KN-65A when it goes bad, and the budget or schedule do not allow for the installation of a different radio.
When used with the KI-266, the KN-65A provides distance and groundspeed / time-to-station. When used with a KI-267, the KN-65A provides distance and groundspeed / VOR radial.
Other King KN-65A features include:
- Remote mounted
- Cooling fan for greater lifespan and reliability
- Increased power over a KN-65
- 200 Channels
- 0 - 200 nm range
- TSO'd
