    Subject: Yak-18T Radio Static
    From: "pjashura" <pjsales@me.com>
    I have constant static on the Russian Radio. When receiving a transmission there is no static, but when listening on a frequency that is not transmitting at the time it is constant, not from the intercom but the radio. I cannot find a squelch adjustment on the intercom panel or on the radio itself. Any ideas? Thanks for any help, it has been this way forever.

    Subject: Re: Manifold pressure
    BIll; The instrument reads in mm/hg X 100. 760 mm/hg is standard air or 29.92 in/hg. Rather than go into a long discourse I suggest you google =9Cmanifold pressure sucks=9D or other similar sites. You may very well have other incorrectly installed intake tube seals. Chances are the upper ones may not show any oil leak. Walt : bill wade Sent: Sunday, May 18, 2014 8:10 PM Subject: Yak-List: Manifold pressure My question to the yak list is what would make the manifold pressure indicator indicate 0 after startup Yak 52 M14P after finishing up a condition inspection found fuel leaking down the number 6 intake tube after removing the tube the seal was damaged during installation at overhaul about 400 hrs ago looked like the installer put the rubber seal in and started the b-nut then installed the tube pushing halve the seal into the blower housing. I replaced the rubber seal putting the b-nut on the intake tube then the seal on the intake tube then installing the tube on the engine and starting the b-nut at the cylinder then making a tool to push the seal into the housing to make starting the housing b-nut easier, no more leak. But the manifold pressure (original Russian instrument with markings 0-16 and indicated 7.5 for atmospheric pressure pre start) reads 0 after startup and at 70% power manifold pressure is 3 indicated.

    Subject: Re: Yak-18T Radio Static
    Your radio may different than mine. My YAK 52 radio has two freq. knobs, a volume control and a small silver vertical switch next to the volume control for squelch. Could your two position switch in fact be the squelch switch but only works with the squelch off. The normal position for my squelch switch is UP. Down position results in the un-squelched static you describe. Good Luck.

    Subject: Yak-18T Radio Static
    I forget which radio the 18T has. I think it is the Balkan 25. Would you let me know please? Is the radio a big silver box located in some rack in the aircraft someplace with a remote control head (as in the YAK-52), or do you have the single long box where the radio itself is right behind the control head? If it is the one like is in the YAK-52, then find the radio itself and there will be two external adjustment rheostats that can be adjusted with a common screw driver. Take a magic marker and carefully mark the radio so as to show where they are presently adjusted to. This ... so that you can put them back to exactly where they are NOW after you mess with them. One of these adjustments controls the transmit modulation level. The OTHER one controls the Squelch. Of course you also have to have the squelch SWITCH turned to the proper position in the cockpit. Turn each adjustment, one at a time fully CLOCKWISE. ONE of them will control the squelch. You have a 50 50 change of getting it right on the first try. If you pick the wrong one, put it back to exactly where it was before using the marks you put on there with your magic marker. The other one you want to adjust to where the noise JUST STOPS and then just a tiny bit more. Good luck. If neither one works..... you probably have a wiring problem. Mark p.s. If you have the radio that is "all in one", as in a control head that is attached to a long rectangular box that you slide out of a rack, with the antenna coax in the rear along with a DB-25 like connector, the squelch adjustment is INSIDE of the radio, and is not something I can describe over email. In those radios, you have to fire them up outside of the aircraft with the cover off and adjust the squelch. Not very easy to do. This radio is the same as is in the YAK-50, and a lot of Sukhoi models. ________________________________ From: owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com [owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com] on behalf of Michael B.

    Mark- thanks for the help. The actual radio is a long black box on a shelf behind the hat rack and it does have the two adjustment screws you describe. They are both at about mid range and neither has any effect on the static but I'm going to try moving them with the fwd toggle switches in different positions. We shall see.

    Agreed, they are not very realistic. I tried to make an offer on the lot of them before they went to these guys and they were not interested in what was a pretty good offer for all 5 airplanes. It will be interesting to see what happens. -------- Barry Hancock Worldwide Warbirds, Inc.

    For what it's worth; my sending unit is a floscan which is sent to an MGL FF-1 http://www.mglavionics.com/html/infinity_singles.html It is plumbed level between the fuel filter and fuel pump. I've had it for 3 years and it is dead on accurate in any phase of flight. It is one of the best mods on my CJ. The air/oil separator and auto spark plug conversion (Dennis) being the other two. The K factor adjustment took a bit of tweaking... Keith -------- Keith McKinley 700HS X26 Sebastian, FL Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=423490#423490
