Subject: RV-List: MX11 PIN-OUT or NARCO COM11 PIN-OUT or an EXTRACT
FROM THE INSTALL MANUAL
Dear Listers,
I'm needing the above subject info to scout-out the reason my MX11 VHF
cannot be heard loud and clear. It's the same radio as the Narco Com11
so they say.
The radio transmissions are received "loud and clear".
The intercom is crystal clear front and back seats.
Radio checks reveal "you're loud and clear" but they sound like they
are coming through a mile long pipe .... clear but very weak.
The Avionics Place at Rockford airport is getting good response on
their bench with their test equipment for both xmit/receive.
The problem is in the aircraft wiring somewhere.
Any ideas, hunches, experiences that solved such a problem?
Can anyone email an extract of the install manual?
My thanks to all on this List,
Jerry

I make carpet for a living (OK, I'm an engineer for the world's largest
carpet manufacturer)...
I don't think carpet is suitable for that application. There is the
potential for too much heat, too close. Carpet isn't designed for the
temperatures you would get on the cockpit side of a firewall where there is
a fire on the other side.
Besides, carpet is heavy. If you're looking for insulation against noise
and heat, you'll do better with a purpose designed product.
Just my $0.02.

A number of certified aircraft use an insulated blanket on the firewall.
They have to contend with the flammability requirements for firewall
materials. The burn specs for material in contact with the firewall is
different than materials used on sidewalls and seats. It's not super
stringent, just a step up. Of course we don't technically have to follow
that but it's something to consider when choosing the material, whether
insulation or carpet. I'm sure there's wool carpeting out there that meets
the firewall spec. That said, the challenge would be getting around all the
firewall penetrations and structure. I think a lot of folks use the aluminum
backed insulation to piece it together and secure it with aluminum tape.
With carpet, you'd want it removable in the event of a brake fluid leak or
such. If you're up to it there's no reason not to.
