Good afternoon all!
As part of the enforced 8.33 upgrade I decided to buy an Icom A6E as it should be a straight replacement for the A3 and work without issue. Unfortunately it doesn’t
The A3 works without issue whether running on its own battery or via the aircraft power.
The A6E has a high pitched “whine” when it transmits. This happens whether on the mains, on the rechargeable battery or AA batteries. There’s no excess noise when receiving.
Any ideas on what might be causing it? It operates through a Lynx interface and transmissions are made via a PTT on the control stick and headsets are Microavionics.
Thanks in advance
