I believe Radio Installation is an art and a science!
Thanks,

I'm with you, my friend.
However, there are a couple things you can do that will improve your radio
performance in your Kolb. You already mentioned resistor plugs which help a
lot, but what helped me even more was a capacitor. On my 447 I used a
10,000 or 15,000 mfd. I imagine the big ones we use on 912 engines would
work as well. They are 22,000 or 25,000 mfd. You all correct me if I am
wrong. I am pulling this out of my worn out memory.
These two items were the primary fixes for me. Other things may have helped
a little, but not enough to brag about.

John and Boyd,
Thanks for your inputs!
I do not power my radio through the aircraft battery , but has its own independent battery pack. This helps me keep noise to a minimum. I agree, a good capacitor and an impedence will help filter out the noise spikes!
The art, science and a bit of lady luck continues...
