Trying to help a friend that recently took first flight in RV7. Any ideas are appreciated. Team X??? Thanks, Sean
Issue:
All of the avionics are working perfectly with one exception: My GTR-200 is receiving lots of static when above pattern altitude (above 1,000 AGL). The "Rx" is lit up, and it sounds like it's on squelch all the time. I have tried to turn squelch on and off with no luck, and in the Menu I have turned squelch from "AUTO" to 0% with no luck. It actually flew fine the first 4-5 hours, but in the last 2 hours this started. I also tried turning off individual systems using the VP-X to see if I'm getting interference (Garmin 696, ADSB, USB, Bluetooth radio, lights, fuel pump, autopilot, Dynon displays, etc.), but no luck. The comms are crystal clear in the pattern (<1,000 AGL). The static is so bad I can't communicate with anyone or listen for AWOS or ATIS.
I have no other comm radios or intercom. Just the single GTR-200.
