The particular install test that failed is limited to the antenna input. Since unit checked ok at the shop and I'm getting voltage at the antenna end of the RG400 lead, I must assume that it's the KA-92. But before I layout big bucks for a new antenna, I was hoping to able to test this one myself. It looks like another trip to the avionics shop is in order to test the antenna.

The problem turned out to be the rather short reach that the computer type pins have in their connectors. I was used to the older type of avionics with the long flat contacts. I found that it was easy for a very small piece of debris or a slight misalignment of the panel to prevent the unit going fully home and ensuring all the pins made contact. Hope it is something as stupidly simple in your case!

Pity about the cheap antenna escalating in price because of certification. John From: > > Thanks John, > > I seem to have good connections so far with no problem getting > everything to seat fully.

But in most cases (like this one) the most you can expect, is to get is what you pay for.

Is there a simple solution to DIY the stereo input? ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 02:37:02 PM PST US From: "Roberto Honorato" Subject: RES: Avionics-List: Garmin 340 Stereo Input Pinout. --> Avionics-List message posted by: "Roberto Honorato" Hello, You need to pass one more wire to each phone jack. You also have to install a mono/stereo switch in the panel, because if you connect a monophone the stereo will be lost in all the phones. The best option is to use shielded cable. I can send you the wiring, let me know in pvt if you want. Have a good one Roberto -----Mensagem original----- De: owner-avionics-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-avionics-list-server@matronics.com] Em nome de JAC Enviada em: quinta-feira, 29 de dezembro de 2005 19:12 Para: avionics-list@matronics.com Assunto: Avionics-List: Garmin 340 Stereo Input Pinout. --> Avionics-List message posted by: "JAC" Avionics shop installed a Garmin 340 audio panel several years ago but left off the stereo input.

That should be really easy. If you go to PS Engineering and look at the PS8000, you can download the wiring instructions for that. They're the same as the Garmin and are interchangeable. You should just have to wire the jack. 3 conductor shielded and you'll be all set.
