LAA Approval of PilotAware installation?

[Young_C]

Hi all,
I have purchased a Rosetta unit and a permanent installation kit. Do I need to obtain LAA approval via a LAA/MOD7 form? The clause on the LAA website says:

The permanent installation  of  transmitting avionics  into LAA  aircraft  must  be  approved  by  the  LAA.   Note that avionics equipment designed to be portable (hand-held radio, hand-held GPS, etc) do not need installation approval.

Has anyone else obtained approval? Or is the Rosetta classed as "designed to be portable"?
Best Regards,
Chris.

Hi Chris
I gave the cable extensions to Chris this morning.
PilotAware is classed as carry-on equipment unless it's permanently installed as you will be doing. I have an agreement with the LAA and BMAA that this can be done by simply by advising your inspector. The difference is that we do not transmit on an aviation frequency so the process is simplified.

Regards
