Russ ,
Iam really happy with my Area 500. A little pricy but works great.
I believe that any of the hand helds will work pretty good as long as you get a GOOD antena , coax
and conectors. I use a Vertex .
Good luck and worth what you paid for it.

Russ K/Kolbers:
Don't know what the best GPS and VHF radio is for a Kolb,
but I have flown all over the lower 48, Canada, and Alaska,
with an ICOM A6 and a Garmin 196. Both have worked
flawlessly in my MKIII.
The ICOM A6 is the latest ICOM handheld. The Garmin 196 is
an older model, but is still being supported 100%. Don't
have any idea how long Garmin will support the 196. I think
the length of service of this GPS is indicative of how well
it is designed and how well it operates.
The 196 has all the Jeppesen data base, plus obstacle
warnings.
For comparison, the Garmin 296, which was introduced some
time after the 196, was discontinued 4 or 5 years ago.

I've used a 196 to fly cross-country many times... it's quite up to the task, but getting long in the tooth.
