 |
|
Obviously I have not grounded something properly, but I am at a loss.
I have two cigarette lighter plugs wired into my aircraft. They are to provide power to my iPad on longer flights. I have noticed that whenever I have the iPad plugged in I get some static when I receive a transmission. Otherwise the radio is quiet. Not sure what to make of this. Why is it only on receiving? I would think that if it was a ground issue, I would have the static all the time.
If there is nothing plugged into the power plug, I have no issues at all.
Any ideas as to what I should check first.

It is the iPad power adapter. Lot of discussion on this and other boards
about good and bad adapters. I have played with a couple and found one that
was better than the others......but my kids keep stealing and moving them.
I just live with it and only plug in the iPad when I need it.
