BendixKing KN 63 transceiver 066-1070-01

066-1070-01 is the exact Part Number shown on this BendixKing KN 63 distance-measuring equipment transceiver. The compact remote-mounted unit performs the radio interrogation and ranging functions required by a compatible DME installation. It is installed away from the primary cockpit controls and works with approved navigation-channel input, antenna, wiring and display equipment rather than serving as a panel indicator by itself.

The full suffix must be matched during replacement. KN 63 equipment can share the same model name while differing by configuration, modification status or approved interface. The identification plate, rack or mounting arrangement, connector, aircraft equipment list and release documentation should all agree with Part Number 066-1070-01. A model-only match does not establish interchangeability with another KN 63, KN 62A or KDM family configuration.

Distance-measuring function of the KN 63

The KN 63 transmits coded interrogation pulse pairs through the aircraft DME antenna. A selected ground transponder replies after a controlled delay, and the transceiver measures the round-trip time to calculate slant-range distance. Compatible cockpit equipment can then present distance and, where supported, derived groundspeed and time-to-station information. The indicated distance is geometric slant range to the facility and is not always equal to horizontal map distance, especially directly above a station.

Channel selection is provided by compatible navigation equipment through the approved tuning interface. Official installation material recognizes remote KN 63 equipment in systems using BendixKing serial DME tuning. The exact navigator, indicator and data path vary by aircraft installation. No specific aircraft type is claimed from the model name alone, and eligibility must be confirmed from the aircraft equipment list and approved alteration or type-design data.

System signal path and associated equipment

A representative signal chain is compatible NAV or GPS navigator → approved DME channeling interface → KN 63 remote transceiver → DME antenna → ground-station reply → KN 63 ranging processor → compatible cockpit display or avionics interface. Every part of this path can affect operation. Missing distance information may result from tuning data, antenna or coaxial-cable faults, power, wiring, display interface, ground-station geometry or the transceiver itself.

The KN 63 is related to compatible indicators and navigators used in an approved DME system, but category proximity does not mean direct interchangeability. KDI 572 and KDI 574 are display and control units for compatible remote DME arrangements; the KN 63 is the radio transceiver. Before combining equipment, confirm the supported tuning protocol, display output, connector pinout, supply voltage, circuit protection, antenna specification and installation approval.

Exact plate data and installation checks

The authentic gallery view shows a KN 63 DME identification plate with Part Number 066-1070-01 and serial number 11679. The plate states 14/28 VDC at 1.24/0.62 A, a weight of 2.8 lb, approximately 1.27 kg, and TSO C66a and DO-160 references. These values belong to the photographed -01 unit and have not been transferred from another remote DME model.

Receiving inspection should verify the complete Part Number, serial, connector contacts, housing, mounting points, ventilation, release documentation and preservation. Installation and return-to-service testing should follow approved data and verify channel selection, transmit and receive operation, valid distance output, display behavior, antenna path and fault indications. RF testing requires suitable approved equipment and qualified personnel; operation must not be judged solely from a bench power-up.

Serviceable supply and ordering information

This 066-1070-01 KN 63 is offered in Serviceable condition from partner stock with a six-month warranty. The quotation will identify the allocated serial number, release documentation, bench-test status and any included mounting hardware. A rack, connector, DME antenna, coaxial cable, navigator, indicator and wiring are included only when specifically stated in the offer.

For an inquiry, specify Part Number 066-1070-01, model KN 63, aircraft type, installed navigator and display, tuning-interface requirement, supply voltage, connector or rack requirement, quantity and required certification. Related navigation and DME equipment can be reviewed in the Garmin / BendixKing / Honeywell / Collins category. Final eligibility, configuration and interchangeability must be determined from the approved aircraft installation and authorized maintenance documentation.
