With the transponder in ON what information is provided to ATC?
the transponder code may be selected and the transponder will transmit the selected code when interrogated, but will not provide altitude reporting information.
With the transponder in ALT what information is provided to ATC?
the transponder code may be selected and will respond to interrogations with the selected code and altitude information received from the air data computer.
