Subject: | Re: RE: Why can't the tower hear me? |
I just plugged in my handheld vertex into the extra antenna on my glastar -
over Austin. Received the usual spark plugs ignition noise my Apollo GX65
hears; but when the approach transmitted, the intermodulation on the vertex
was terrible. Vertex is Yaesu I believe, and my 2 meter ham radio goes nuts
in certain parts of Houston (we call it RF alley) on I-59- so - intermod,
usually affects received signals, but who knows maybe in these "cheap"
little radios, other equipment on the field might also affect it. Do you
have anything else "on" in the plane? I'd say it is not the antenna. best
advice, you have already been given - test it with another plane or two on
that frequency, and confirm it is okay before you get into it with the FAA.
I do believe they have the worst radios on the aviation band however. I
always have to turn the squelch "off" to hear them in my glastar - but the
garmin in my 500B receives them well.

Subject: | Broken Low Voltage Module |
Hi Bob,
I don't know if you missed my last inquiry, but I haven't seen a response.
You were going to pot the back of the low voltage module and send it back.
That has been several weeks and I have not seen it as yet. Did you send it?
If so, it must be lost in the mail.
Let me know. I would like to reinstall it and check my plane wiring to see
if I can determine the problem.
Thanks for your help.

Bob,
I was out of town for three weeks and thought that I would find the board in
my mail when I returned, but it was not there.
Did you manage to get it out??

Yes. Aside from more corrosion than I would like to see,
both the instrument and ECB are functional as advertised.
I've cleaned the board and plan to conformal coat before
I return them. Leaving for ML in a few hours but will be
back in shop Wednesday. I can probably get it out then.
What ever difficulties you're experiencing must be
in ship's wiring.

Subject: | Re: RE: Why can't the tower hear me? |
My plane actually has no engine driven electrical system, just a 12v
battery that runs the radio, intercom and GPS. My wires are all
shielded (including plug wires), and the plane has almost no electronics
so noise sources are minimal.
Today, I did another test that sheds a lot of light on the situation.
>From 2,500', I called the tower from less than 6 miles out. My friend
in his plane a few miles away reported that he could hear me loud and
clear, but the tower said I was garbled and unreadable. To me, that
indicates that some combination of factors between my radio and theirs
is causing problems. At what point should I try to address it with
them? I doubt they will care about my problem if no one else is having
problems.
Thanks for any tips.

A little new information on this. To refresh everyone's memory, I

KAFW - 120.825, KDTO - 119.95, KADM - 118.5, and others). Everyone
reports my signal as loud and clear, EXCEPT the tower at KOUN (118.0).
This morning, I was flying out of KOUN again and got some new

very clearly on 121.6. As soon as I switched to 118.0 though, they said
my transmission was garbled and unreadable (still on the ground, nothing
had changed but the frequency).
So, I know I can transmit clearly on 118.3. However, apparently it
is not so clear on 118.0. I can hear the tower clearly on 118.0. I've
read that an antenna that receives well will also transmit well...this

digital tuner on my handheld is not tuning correctly? I know, I need to
get another handheld in the plane to see if I have the same problem. My
radio is a three year old Vertex Standard VXA-150.
Anyway, my primary question is, can anyone shed light on why I am
not able to transmit clearly on 118.0? Where should I look first to try
and solve this problem? I realize that 118.0 is at the very bottom of
the aviation band, which made me think maybe my antenna length is off
just slightly. I am going to measure that to verify. On that note,
what is the exact length of the antenna with respect to the ground plane
that I should measure? It is a brass rod sticking through an aluminum
plate with nylon spacers as insulators. The brass rod sticks up above
the ground plane about 1/2" or so on top. Could that small unshielded
portion cause a problem, or is it too small to be a factor, and only the
primary antenna length below the ground plane matters?

Cordiality wasn't in evidence at KOUN. I was told in no uncertain
terms that it wasn't their fault that my radio was junk, but they would
give me light signals to get me out. I tried to explain that I've had
the radio worked on a number of times and their facility was the only
place I was having any trouble, which was true at the time, and got the
reply - "If you want light signals to get out, then tell me, but don't
blame our equipment for your radio problems." I was on a telephone
talking to them from the service office - wouldn't see me face to face.
They see lots of high power stuff and cater to it - my old ratty looking
Pacer was consider "junk". I took the light signals and the radio was
working fine by the time I got to the end of the taxiway. Called up OK
City immediately after leaving the pattern, had radio check and was told
"five x five". Next time I go in, (I've got my hand held set up on an
external antenna as a backup radio ), as soon as I power down, I'm going
to call up tower for radio check on the Icom, and then do the same thing
with the handheld on rubber ducky antenna. Next day, if I have
problems, I'll try the rubber ducky antenna again, as using the external
antenna on the hand held also resulted in unreadable transmissions.
Just doesn't make sense that two different radios are having the same
problem on the same day.

Hi All-
Sounds like perhaps it's time for phone calls to the tower
chief to make sure that he/she knows of the issue. If that
gets no results, a letter to the regional office. Make sure
to delineate all the steps you guys have taken to verify your
own equipment ops.
You can also call them to let them on the phone to coordinate
a NORDO arrival. Just be sure to review the light gun
signals. Also, remember to keep you Piet under 200 KIAS ;-)
As an aside, I've a good friend who is a controller who has
provided me with various insights. Included in those were
that although they can't upgrade equipment, they do get new
leather furniture. Makes one proud of the system.
