    D Sub Connectors

    For a few months now I've been having difficulties inserting wires into some dsub connectors ie having to use an insert tool to get them to go to the detent position but just thought that it may have been caused by a few connectors that were slightly 'out of spec'.

    vers 5.0 Mapping

    For users in OZ with Jepps database - This may be coincidental, & may have been due to something else, but after uploading 5.0 we noticed CTA airspace rings are missing eg YPAD DME 11, 20, 36 etc - same applies to YMML. All other airspace areas seem to be ok. Can you check your system please...

    Sky view in portrait mode

    With the apparent massive (anecdotal) use of IPad as an aid to aviation maybe Dynon should look at offering the D700 in portrait mode (as opposed to landscape) to give more panel space for the IPad ? especially for dual SV installations. 8-) Jake J

    EMS spikes etc

    FWIW - I've been trying to help various people with the topic issues of 'spikes' when transmitting.  Now the obvious cause is RF, but why ? All the installations I've done (including fitting the Com antenna) do not have a problem (except 1 composite aircraft) but a customer with an RV now does...

    SL30 OBS in LOC/ILS mode

    DS I have a SL30 connected directly to a D100 (no HS34) - OBS selection on the SL30 works in VOR/LOC mode (makes changes on the HSI as expected) but not in ILS mode. Why ?? Do we have to have an HS34 ? TIA Jake J

    We have a B&C 40 amp Alternator fitted to an IO-360 & D120.  Since first engine run the ammeter shows a fluctuating high (+5 up to +36) amps output however volts are always stable at 14.1- 14.2.  Turning on 'loads' exacerbates the reading - any thoughts on why this is happening ?  Shunt is in...
