    Subject: Voltage Spike Question
    From: Bruce Green <mailindex@juno.com>
    --> Avionics-List message posted by: Bruce Green <mailindex@juno.com> I have a KX125 in a Christen Eagle and it has failed three times. Each time, it would not transmit or recieve and when it was repaired, it was a different compontent each time that "shorted out and burned a track on the PC board" The first two failures were a week apart and then it went a year before the next failure. The obvious question here is whether this is just a string of bad luck with the radio or is my airplane doing something that is damaging the radio? The only electric items in the plane are the radio, transponder and intercom, no lights pumps or anything else electrical. Two of the times I know exactly when it failed and had no corresponding noise in the headset of a voltage spike. The intercom and transponder have been functioning fine through all of this. My gut tells me that a voltage spike would not cause a short on my pc board, but that is just my gut. Any ideas? Bruce Green

    --> Avionics-List message posted by: "MikeTruffer" <lindbergh@cfl.rr.com> Sandel was showing off its new HSI at OSH. It can display more types of remote imputs, has a display that's readable from a much greater side angle, easier install, etc. It looked good to me! $11K list. King had an 825 at OSH, too. Looked OK, but the reps there were too busy talking to each other to answer my questions. --Mike ----- Original Message ----- From: Ron Curry To: avionics-list@matronics.com Sent: Tuesday, July 27, 2004 7:48 PM Subject: Avionics-List: Bendix-King KI-825 --> Avionics-List message posted by: "Ron Curry" <rec@curry.org> Anyone have one of these or experience installing it? Opinions? Is it a solid unit? Where you impressed with it's capability? Does it have analog outputs to drive say a Cessna 400B without adapters? Thanks, Ron Curry
