I've tested my SL40 on the ground (engine off), and transmission and reception are fine. However when transmitting in the air or on the ground with the engine running the headset volume levels are so high and distorted that my transmissions (both pilot and co-pilot sides) are virtually unintelligible. However, other aircraft report receiving 5 by 5. Their air to air transmissions seem rather faint, although air to ground (engine off) is fine. Conversation between pilot and co-pilot is not a problem, so the intercom seems OK.
As a first step in tracking down the problem, would someone be able to compare my SL40 settings with theirs. The only change I have made from the settings as received in the kit was to set the Sidetone level to zero as suggested in some previous posts:
Ver 2.2
RF level 032
Noise level 140
Headphone level 000
Mic 1 squelch 058
Mic 2 squelch 058
Transmit Mic 1 + 2
