hi thanks for the advice re the usb chargers. They can give a lot of problems and it is not obvious. Often there is no noise but there is a loss of radio sensitivity. The noise that I have seems to be engine speed sensitive and quite a sharp sound. However disconnecting the alternator connections to...

Hi Ian

Hi

I would like to contact Enstone Avionics but Google and Enstone Airfield have drawn a blank. They don't appear to have a website. Has anyone got a phone number please?

thanks

Hi Tony

Yes I still get the interference with a hand held. I have been phoning around to try to find someone who knows about avionics and also Rotax ignition systems. They seem as rare as hens teeth. If you know anyone in the South East I'd love to hear.

Hi I'm getting airborne radio interference on my Rotax 912s Sportcruiser. I've had a couple of very knowledgeable avionics chaps take a look and they have helped me remove other noise but unfortunately neither have any experience of Rotax's and their ignition and charging systems.

Hi I'm having ongoing radio interference issues with my plane and need a suitable expert in the the Gatwick/Guildford area. My usual man is not available.

I need some new pins for the molex connector that is part of the mounting tray, and which interfaces with the pcb of the radio.

Does anyone know the part no. or source please?

thanks

I found that the following item from Amazon filtered out engine ignition noise.

"Bumper 20A Noise Suppressor For Installation in the 12V Power Lead"

Great. Thanks !

they are smallish pins. If you look at the video you will see the pins that I am trying to crimp.

am i reading it correct? The pliers seem to be about £200 each

Hi does anyone know where to get a tool for crimping molex and other multi-connector pins at a sensible price please. I cannot find one anywhere. I have found a video on youtube of exactly the tool but not where to get it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmTokBT-2n4&feature=related cheers john massey

Can anyone confirm that they actually solve the problem?
