I am at my wits end trying to figure this out. I have a Skyview 7 inch display and all the Dynon extras (GPS,transponder,EMS). In addition, I also have an IFLY 700 GPS with external antenna and a connecting to Stratux ADSB-in. My issue is now I can operate both GPS units as both will not lock. If I turn off IFLY unit, Dynon works. Anyone with knowledge as to why this is happening? Previous flights both units work, not now.

Are you trying to use the same antenna for both?

More info please re connection to the Dynon system. How are the interfaces done ? ;)
All separate. Separate systems between Dynon and IFLY. I am beginning to think the Stratux external GPS antenna is to close to the Dynon GPS antenna.

Could be that. Let us know how it goes with more separation of the antennas, it may help others.
