Sam,
Ditto what Tim said. The easiest thing to do would be to borrow a hand-held receiver.
If possible, you might also connect it to the ship's power to see if
the symptoms change. If you only get interference while connected to the ship's
power, it's probably coming in through the power wiring and not the antenna.
My concern was that I would experience the same issue, since I will also be using
Archer wingtip antennas, and the strobe will only be a few inches away. Someone
suggested, and Bob may confirm, that grounding the shield at both ends gives
you an electromagnetic shield (what we want), as opposed to grounding at
only one end (electrostatic shield).

Thanks much for this write-up. I'm going to go down this route for my
panel (that's waiting for paint).

'lectric Bob
Do you have a ballpark estimate of when the AEC9024 modules might be available
for sale? Do you have a ballpark estimate of what the price might be?
When the AEC9024-20 is used as an O.V. Protect Module, it appears that the 5A.
pullable breaker is not needed. Correct?

What is the nature of the noise? Is it a 'pop' each time
the strobe fires or is it a whine that sweeps in synchronization
with the strobe firing? Is the noise affected by adjusting
volume on the radio? When there is no signal being received
by the radio and the background noise is squelched, can
the noise be heard?
For the most part, shielding of the strobe wiring has little
or zero benefit for noise reduction. The 'pop' phenomenon
is most often associated with radiated noise from the
strobe tube and is generally worse when the victim receiver's
antenna is mounted close to the tube. The whining noise is
usually conducted on the 14v power lines but it can get into
the system via the radio or the external audio processing
like the intercom.
You first need to evaluate the questions above to identify
the mode of propagation and exactly WHICH system is being
victimized.

I've finished the board layout and my software guy
is working on the code. This one is a little trickier
in that there are four sets of software in the device
which can be invoked by the installer to achieve the
desired function.
It will be this summer after I get done with the
"Mother of all garage sales" and we've fully combed
the software for bugs. The target price for this product
is $35.

Correct. The AEC9024 is a relay controller and functions
to break the power path to the alternator/generator field
or the AC power from the dynamo. It's not a crowbar system.

Why not just let Stein do it for $20.00? They will print one entire sheet
of labels in the color of your choice, if I understand correctly.

Printing directly on the painted panel is much neater=2C cleaner and more p
rofessional looking than "labels" in many people's opinion. You can do a ni
ce neat "labelling" job but it's still "labels" whereas printing directly o
n the panel doesn't give the label's background. (even a clear label still
has an outline)

Hi Bob
How is this different/better than the OV modules I have on my engine now. Maybe
I got into this thread late

Just different. No improvements on functionality.
It's a new product that offers the builder an option
of using it in 4 different functions from a single
product. It also markedly reduces our inventory
requirements to support the product line . . .
one part does 4 things.
