John-

I h= ave a similar stack and initially put the Trutrak on the bottom.  This= was a huge mistake.  The Trutrak should be closer to eye level. = You look at the transponder once or twice, but the autopilot frequently th= roughout your flight.

This year, I moved my transponder to the lowes= t level on the stack and have been very pleased to have the Trutrak below t= he SL30/40.

Good luck,
