The VOR tracking is working, but the DME LEDs seem to be out. Of course, I can't tell if the DME is functional, but not displaying. Anyone have a similar experience? I know that some Narco elements have a sacrificial part that is supposed to prevent unit damage in the event of a voltage spike. Please, no Narco-negative comments. The Garmin Fairy has not come to my home, and it's not in his/her flight path (that I know of). I left the DME on during the charging event. It's my fault. Any suggestions/Help are welcome. Any recommendations on a radio shop in Md. or Northern VA are also welcome.

I think the last DME that Narco made was the DME195 which is a fairly large blue box hidden somewhere. I have seen those beasts channeled by a MK12D but they have a readout that is a rectangle about 1 inch high and 3 inches wide. The lamps are not LED's but rather seven-segment incandescent lamps. Can you listen to the DME code that is sent out every minute? That will tell you something about what's working and what is not. -- --> From the U S of A, the only socialist country that refuses to admit it. <-- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message avionics-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Avionics-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/avionics-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/avionics-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
