Garmin GNC 215 NAV/COMM Radio

Garmin GNC 215 Radio

The GNC 215 NAV/COMM radio offers all the same COMM features as the GTR 205, while also adding full VHF navigation capabilities, including VOR/ILS with localizer and glideslope. Navaid lookup allows the GNC 215 to find the desired frequency from its built-in worldwide database when entering a navaid, and the Automatic Station ID feature will automatically decode a station’s Morse code to provide positive visual identification.

The GNC 215 also has the ability to monitor the standby VOR frequency while displaying the received radial and features a supplemental CDI display for a VOR or localizer. These NAV/COMM products interface with most CDI, HSI and autopilot systems, as well as most Garmin flight displays to show the Nav indicators in the primary field of view.

The GNC 215 now has the ability to serve as a mono two-place intercom by wiring two headsets in parallel using the COM Audio Out. Please note, this functionality is similar to GNC 255 - therefore stereo audio, 3D audio, Bluetooth and individual pilot/co-pilot volume control is not available.
