				In the USA only the ransponder needs a biannual check for VFR...I pull
 it out and give it to the avionics shop much to my disgust!

				A little correction... the altimeter need
 certification if you fly into Class B airspace.
 
 The transponder needs certification if it is installed
 in the airplane.... even if you never turn it on.
 
 Last time I did it, I brought the txpndr, the encoder
 and the altimeter to the avionics shop.   I got
 everything certified, but the guy told me that I did
 not really need the altimeter certification.  What I
 needed were:
 . txpndr and encoder certification
 . encoder/altimeter correlation

  In Canada the ELT must be certified annually, and
  the Altimeter
  (transponder/encoder) must be certified each 2 years
  if you are flying IFR
  or VFR in class B, C airspace etc...
  
  As amateur builders (owner maintenance) I'm guessing
  this is difficult to do
  without some special test equipment/training? Or is
  it?  What are those of
  you flying, doing for certification of these two
  pieces of equipment?
  
  Answer me off-forum if you prefer to remain below
  the radar ha ha!

				I assume you send the encoder too.

				Nope...Just the transponder!...Don't ask me how that's legal but the
 shop gives me this yellow tag that says I'm good to go
