Video Adaptor RF interference

[sstearns2]

I just upgraded from Skyview classic to HDX. The camera/video adaptor worked perfectly with the classic screens, but with the same set up going into the HDX screen it is sensitive to COM radio transmissions. The higher aviation com frequencies interfere with the picture and the lower frequencies knock it off line completely. I was using the pigtail USB lead on the classic, but now it’s connected directly to the back of the HDX screen.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Scott

I would try a shielded USB extension cable first, and check the adapter at various locations. That's probably simpler than any other options.

Thanks. I ordered a shielded USB. I think I’ll try plugging the video adaptor directly to the Skyview screen and see if that fixes it.

I thought your first post said it was plugged directly into the HDX????? Or was that a joke about the front of the screen?
