Can anybody tell me how they successfully connected their Skyview to an AeroVee and got the correct rpm,s to display. I connected to the to the magnetron ignition with a 30 kohm resistor and am showing much slower than expected RPM. :(

Just because it is slower than you expect doesn't mean you have a connection problem. What are your pulses per revolution set to in the setup menu?

Also, where on the magnetron are you hooked? You must hook to the low voltage side of an ignition system, not the direct spark output.
