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
