    Airspeed low audible adjustment ?

    OK, have a look at this: Go to your setup menu, SETUP MENU > SYSTEM SETUP > AUDIO SETUP and go to the Angle of Attack sub menu. There is an "INHIBIT AOA BELOW AIRSPEED" in there. Just check that your inhibit airspeed hasn't been changed to zero or something

    Airspeed low audible adjustment ?

    Ah, that makes sense. If you have the Dynon pitot/AoA probe, check that the AoA inlet is not blocked off (piece of tape, etc). When we do pitot/static leak and function tests, we have to block off the AoA port if using a standard type pitot test adapter. Not saying it's causing your problem, but...

    Airspeed low audible adjustment ?

    Are you seeing the flight director bars at the same time? I thought this warning was only to do with the autopilot. Might it be the AP is on (obviously not engaged), and you will get this warning.

    SYSEVENT 11

    You could go into setup, and see what it tells you to do. It will probably ask you to upload a diagnostics file. Looking through the software updates, it was addressed in 15.3.3 System event 11 has to do with an intermittent USB connection, so maybe start there. Try another USB. Let us know...

    I know... Radio is weird sometimes and doesn't make sense

    SV-COM-T25 transmission unreadable on 124.4

    Because the ELT antenna is naturally resonant at 121.5 Mhz, it can cause harmonics on your transmissions at certain frequencies. It's not all ELT's, and doesn't seem to matter about how close or far away your antenna is to the ELT antenna. Nor does it matter if you disconnect the ELT from the...

    Cautions after updating single Skyview HDX from 17.4 to 17.5

    Thank you for coming back and posting the resolution. The more people that can do this, the better resource this forum becomes. Much appreciated!

    SV-COM-T25 transmission unreadable on 124.4

    Do you have an ELT antenna on your aircraft? I have seen reports of harmonics between the two antennas causing transmission problems on certain frequencies

    Position Source 1 fail -Diagnosing the problem / how to use different GPS source in the interim

    Oh, OK. I was thinking the 430W was providing your position source. No worries

    Position Source 1 fail -Diagnosing the problem / how to use different GPS source in the interim

    I have had several of the Garmin GPS antennas fail over the last year. If you get the message, have a look at your 430W satellites page. If you have no satellites all of a sudden, then your antenna is toast. It starts intermittently, where all the sats drop off, but are fairly quickly regained...

    Screw size for Pitot Tube to Pitot mount mast

    Yes, 6/32 is the go. I drilled the mast first, then inserted the pitot tube in and marked it. Then drill the pitot tube in a drill press. It's a bit fiddly to get the hole angles correct, but as mentioned above, there is lots of good info around.

    Air Temperature Sensor

    I don't know if the grill sensor would work, but the below if from the manual. It can't hurt to hook it up to the general purpose temp sensor pins and try different configurations.

    OAT sensor- removable connectors?

    You didn't mention if it was Skyview or not. With the OAT probe supplied for the ADAHRS unit, it has the connector not installed, just loose wires with the pins on the end. Connector goes on after the wires are fed through. If you are using microfit connectors, can you do the same thing?
