I'm 99% certain that this is a ground loop problem. The telling symptom is alternator noise that increases with ship's loads when substantial currents travel over the airframe. I'll bet if you move the Garmin DC(-) lead to the same ground as all the avionics/ audio system grounds, the noise will go away. Bob . . .

    Subject: Schicke GR6 Voltage Regulator
    Friends in Europe, especially Germany, Would someone please find out what it would take for the Schicke Electronic to allow someone in the USA to purchase one of their GR6 voltage regulators. They state on their site, to the best of my poor "Buch Deutch" from 1968 that they require written permission for export to the United States. I would like very much to purchase one of their voltage regulators but do not know how to go about it. Thanks very much in advance for your assistance.

    I'm going to send out the same message that I sent to the Rotax list, in response to Bob, just for your amusement, and perhaps edification... Here it is: Hah, the world is full of such idiosyncrasies. Try getting something out of Zeftronics in the US. Took me around 6 months to get a generator regulator from them; it arrived last week and I am too terrified to look at the details of it in case I ordered the wrong one- my client will castrate me. And there I thought that Germany was a service desert... How about trying what the rest of the world does when trying to buy something from Itunes? Lie. You can only buy stuff from Itunes if you are in the US, so the rest of us create fictitious email addresses that seem to originate in the US and get on with buying what we desire. Of course, being from third world countries that very few people in the US have heard of, much less place, we immediately sell the tunes on the black market. Hmm, not really. And, in defence of the US (which I am not entirely comfortable with doing; you did re-elect dubyah, and you still use that antiquated imperial system that stuffs me around no end... ) I did not know where most of the US cities were... or which states were what. But then I visited some of them. And now I do know where some of them are. Especially OSHKOSH! J So, Bob, if you cannot figure a way around this, mail me directly. I, being non-American ;-) , have a few friends in Europe who might be able to help out by getting the item sent to them and sending it on to you.... even some in Germany (but don't mention the war!) :o Please someone tell me if this gets through; everytime that I send a reply there is a deafening silence- what is that? Is it because I am from somewhere in Africa (South Africa is in the south of Africa and is a country in its own right - SOUTH AFRICA), or is it that no one wants to talk to me because our idiot president has his d**k all over the net?

    Jay, I got your message! I think some people may not want to talk to you because you're.....African. ;) Everyone else from Africa that writes them is having problems getting money out and wants help!!!! Or maybe not.

    Hey gang, what grommet or gadget was being discussed to use on the wires end s to the PMAG connector? I ended up using SD male D-sub pins with the pin clipped off and just the crimp left over the wire. S eems ok, but I don't get warm fuzzys from these connectors. Not at all.... Thanks, Tim >

    Subject: Re: Found it!
    Bob . . . I did get to the hanger today and quickly pulled the wires out into the open that has the 3.5mm plug (one that goes into the Garmin). Can you explain the lo / hi audio wire thing. In a monophonic audio cable with 3.5 mm plug, the tip is connected to the signal/center/hi lead, the sleeve is connected to the shield/ground/lo lead. A stereo cable adds another free conductor and the two signal wires become right and left audio. The shield/ground/lo lead still connects to the sleeve. The larger analogy can be seen on a legacy microphone connector http://aeroelectric.com/articles/micjack/micjack.html Am I to understand that the lo is to be soldered to the ground? This may be my goof as I purchased this plug (which is stereo and my intercom is not). I think I may have soldered the two wires to right and left and the ground might be left out in the cold. Will need to double check, but I looked up the PM 1000 pin-out after I got home so it may be in the soldering of that plug. I purchased the solderable mini plug in stereo config as I wanted to hear the music / alerts in both sides of headset. I'm confused. If you have stereo headsets, then you would need to install 3-circuit jacks and tie both r/l audio from headset together to be treated as a mono headset. This is the only place you would use a 3-ckt jack. The PM1000 MUSIC IN is monophonic which would required blending r/l channels together BEFORE wiring the blend into pin 20 and the lo/gnd side to pin 7. Emacs! This would call for a 2-ckt plug to do the mate up between the Garmin and the PS1000. And just for grins, I'd use pin 7 of the PS1000 for BOTH audio ground and DC power ground for the Garmin. http://tinyurl.com/7ypuofg Emacs! Unless you have stereo audio to handle, a simple 2-ckt plug/jack combination will suffice. The mis-application of the 3-ckt jack may indeed be contributing to your problem. Bob . . .
