    Yaesu ft230 handheld

    Hi. I'm using fta720 and previously vxa-300 and vxa-700. I'm very happy with yaesu and I think it's much more betted choose than icom (a24 for eg.). Why? I hadn't never problem with yaesu radios (ham and aviation). In yaesu with similar price to icom you always got more features. For eg. i...

    Becker AMP6400-2 transponder programming

    pwood66889: In mode-s transponder you have to set (program) transponder ICAO code assigned to aeroplane, type of aeroplane, speed range, weight and several items. If you'll buy used mode-s and install in your aeroplane ATC will see you with wrong callsign. In for eg. garmin you can just set it...

    Becker AMP6400-2 transponder programming

    It's no problem but in Poland it's expensive. You have to buy cable for 100EUR, it's about 400-500zł and I'm sure that this cable is normal TTL converter... Strange politic to make "magic address plug". In Garmin GTX for ex. you can re-program xpdr by special sequence of buttons.

    Becker AMP6400-2 transponder programming

    I see, but you misunderstood me. I'm looking only for programming cable and software for Becker. I'd like to program factory made address key for Becker so no home made part will participate in flight.

    Becker AMP6400-2 transponder programming

    100USD + availability in Poland.. Why illegal? If I use officially assigned ICAO code, it would be ok. For example in Garmin you can re-program it using xpdr keypad and don't need special programmer.

    VHF antenna magic

    Ok, it's not end of magic. I have good SWR 1:1,3 - 1:1,4 on solid antenna but the problem is i have very bad reception of portable stations on aerodrome. In another plane I can hear the same radio for a few kilometers, on my I have problem to understand when I'm downwind... I tried to replace...

    VHF antenna magic

    Ok, Today I replaced this plate for bigger. SWR fall down to ~1:1,4 on solid antenna. Still better on higher frequency. My GP "rod" antenna have 1:1. Metal mesh not working as good ground... you always need big plate.

    VHF antenna magic

    Yee. This white plate is isolator and I hope it's not connected by rivets to copper plate. If not I should be able to remove copper and put new, aluminium, bigger plate. I made two pigtails to connect plate with pigtail and ground (by rivets). If I put new plate I try to connect antenna ground...

    VHF antenna magic

    New photos. Now I'm looking for this and I think that plate is too small. It can be a reason? I'm not sure I'm able to replace it (I have only small access hole). Maybe it would be good to swap places of gps and com antennas. VHF would be more at center. I have GRS deployment cover left side...

    VHF antenna magic

    VHF antenna magic

    Himat Plane has metal mesh. I'll try to make photos today. It's not easy access. It's probably very hard to disassemble or replace this cooper board. Probably fabric damage. I checked resistances between plate and airframe and cable shield, it's ok.
