The VHF Comms frequencies are in the 118.00 to 136.00 range anything outside that is for other uses eg in the case of the lower ones they arefor VOR, LOC & ILS etc. So as you have just a Com you will not be able to receive the ATIS frequencies you mentioned.

THAT was how I read it too, the NETWORK cable is missing & if that is the case then you would not see the EMS on the list after doing a system config.

my input was due to the OP's last sentence  ----    "I think I am not getting anything from the EMS 220, all my sensors are directly connected, I do get voltage reading though from somewhere.. ;)

The only connection for EMS data from the EMS module to Skyview is via the network cable (9 pin dsub) are you saying the sensors are connected directly to Skyview ?  IF so then make up (or buy) a network cable (it's in the manual) , female to female 9 pin dsub connectors pins in parallel but...

Any of their common grounds will do, it's not necessary to ground exactly as per book in this case.

AlanR I could try troubleshooting this issue with you offline if you wish, just pm me.

which part ? Vern or what he said ? ;D ;D

Adelaide :)

Yes, no problem at all ;)

+ 1 here too.

Simple check - unplug the battery ;)

Graham, it's a standard 25 pin male dsub connector so an avionics shop near you will have one ;)

Graham I'd change the probe type (in menu settings) so it reads what's expected, I don't remember off hand, without ready access to the manual, what it's supposed to be.

The GRT one ;)

Just as expected, pictures can be a really useful troubleshooting tool  ;)

1. Unsure as I've never seen one of these, try it out anyway - can't hurt. 2. Flowscan - no problem there. 3. Same as for 1.

Yes it can, best to post a picture for reference.

Scaling only applies to Gps/RNAV approaches. A selected ILS frequency will give the required sensitivity for the approach which is different to the VOR (enroute portion) freq.

Graham You can swap the wire (pin) positions in the dsub connector on the loom at the back of the 180.

Leaving the avionics off (includes Transponder) is an industry wide practice that goes back decades, why would you do any different now especially considering the issues appear to be voltage 'sag' related ?
