There is no description of the interference with his EFIS and autopilot. Without some detailed sort of characterization of the symptoms you can't even guess what bandwidth you might need in a scope to track down the noise. Is it audio range, power inverter range, RF, etc? The android apps mentioned by Jetboy seen to be spectrum analyzers for audio range only, so far as I can tell, not oscilloscope apps. Sam: what wires are you planning to look at with a scope? Power? Digital I/O lines, analog I/O? If you are thinking about splicing a headset cord on to a avionics power line, remember that 12 V will smoke an Android. Real scopes generally have voltage divider probes and and are usually tolerant of much wider voltage ranges to start with. -------- Ira N224XS Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=451285#451285 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 10:13:04 AM PST US Subject: AeroElectric-List: JPI vs. Insight From: GLEN MATEJCEK HI All- I've a friend interested in updating his 182's panel with a graphic engine analyzer, and has narrowed his search to either a JPI 730 or 830, or an Insight G2 or G3. I haven't followed that market in many years, and was wondering if any of you folks in the field had any commentary. Thanks in advane for your thoughts- ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 10:58:11 AM PST US Subject: Re: AeroElectric-List: JPI vs. Insight From: Bambas I've had a JPI 830 in a Globe Swift (6 cyl Cont O-300) for four years an it has worked flawlessly. I fly by it's %power and EGT indications. The fuel totalizer is usually within tenths of a gallon on predicting gallons required when topping off.

They basically stole the name of a product that Matt created (Fuelscan), then used the overwhelming weight of their corporate lawyers to force his brand name off his product. I've read of others having support issues (read that 'abandonment') with a different brand that the company bought out. I'm a firm believer in keeping my money away from unscrupulous & unethical operators.

They also have an excellent reputation for customer support.
