I'll have to go find that issue. I'm a bit concerned about noise on the radio, though. The inverters most of those setups use are notoriously cheap and throw a ton of RF everywhere. Some of it was to the point that it would mess with computers a few years ago. Hopefully they've improved since then. I'd love to use the stuff. A strip or two of light tape or wire along the underside of the glare shield overhang, countersunk about .060", would light up the panel enough for flying at night. -- Steve mystic...@swbell.net He who seeks will find, and he who knocks will be let in.
