Vortex Generators

Yes, you're right about needing only one Electronics International UBG-16. I misstated the case.
The UBG-16 can display all EGTs and all CHTs for both engines. It can...

Thanks, Jim.
Your experience gives me some comfort.
My mechanic likewise says the blade needs re-shimming, but it's OK for now. I"m going to fly it to a prop shop asap.
Best,
