The physical dimensions seem identical, the displays are very similar, and the cannon-type plugs are the same. However, the ark-47B I am testing will not power up when plugged in, whereas the GH-28B does power up. I would think they would have the same wiring requirements. Anyone know, or have a wiring diagram for the ark-47B? -------- Tracy Cloud 9 Field Michigan cloud9sa@aol.com Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=439298#439298 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 03:16:10 PM PST US Subject: Yak-List: Main Air Tank From: Ernest Martinez Here are pics of the tank I fashioned for my plane.

You should do a Red Star article when all done with your setup...looks good. Keep us posted.
