All,



I just had an SL-30 installed which is breaking squelch on certain

frequencies.  It may be a myriad of things, including antenna location but I

was wondering if anyone knows of any Yak specific gotchas with this

installation?  



Thanks in advance

Update - squelch problem fixed.  There's another issue.  Both the SL-30 and

the original Russian Radio are installed completely independent of one

another.  The only place they connect is the headset jack.  For some reason,

the volume controls on the Russian radio and intercom now working in

reverse!  The radio still transmits and receives just fine.  I do not

pretend to be an electronics guy and my avionics installer is scratching his

head.  Anyone have any ideas what would cause this to happen?

Scott,

If you still have the Russian intercom volume control panel installed, make 

sure the toggle switches in both cockpits are down.  If one of the toggle 

switches (intercom volume and radio volume) are in different positions, 

front and rear, it reverses the control.  It took me FOREVER to figure that 

one out.  Before I did, the rear volume control was controlling the front 

volume and vice versa.

Two large noise generators with M-14 engines.  

   

  1.  Inspect the shield ground at the mag P leads.  The shield oftentimes gets broken there and needs to be repaired.

   

  2.  Look for good shield ground at the tach generator cannon plug.   Russian wires and solder tend to break.  If one of the three wires breaks, the tach will go backwards or have other weird behavior.  If the shield has a problem, that tach generator will develop so much noise it is amazing.
