Hand mic into both jacks, same result. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk

If I could bring it to you and pay you to fix it I totally would as the guy at the local shop seems completely clueless. I have tried 2 Bose A20 headsets, a David Clark H20-10 and one of the ASA ones as well. Everything worked fine for the first 5 months I had the plane and then out of the blue...

Since it doesn't appear that anyone here has any theories, does anyone know if there's a place online that specializes in this kind of thing? The local avionics shop doesn't seem to have a clue what they're doing and I'm not really looking forward to the drop the airplane along with a blank...

Yep the modulation was low at my home field on 134.85 yet it was fine on the headset. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk

It's a 1964 Cherokee 140 and the tower that said I was weak was a mile away I could see it at 3000 feet Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk

The audio panel is an old Collins AMR 350 and I do not normally have the hand mic plugged in at all, I just plugged it in on a whim for a test. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk

For what it's worth if I use the hand mic I go from broken and unreadable two weak but legible Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk

Pulling the antenna off of the ELT did not change a thing Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk

I will go try this in an hour or so. If it matters, I have one of the new 406mhz ELTs Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk

Hey everyone, I am pulling my hair out with my continued radio woes and would appreciate any advice. Westover tower and ground hear me great from 50 miles away on 134.85 and 118.35. Northampton unicomm and turners Unicomm hear me great on 122.7 and 123.0 yet Westfield Tower 118.9, Worcester...

Any time you need to access anything directly behind the nosebowl, say the alternator, the prop has to come off. Also you can't run the engine with the cowl off and just the nosebowl on.

I don't have the new filter on hand yet but I believe it's going to be a champion. Is that going to require DC-4? If so can that be purchased at any kind of commercial chain store?

I see there are various STC's available to split the nosebowl on the PA-28-140. Has anyone actually been through it and have any idea of how much labor is involved?

Tomorrow I will be doing the first oil change on my 1964 piper Cherokee 140. It has a quick drain and will be a relatively easy job but I'm curious, do I have to drain the oil cooler as well? Unfortunately my manual does not have specifics for oil changes. Any advice appreciated!

I was able to get a mechanic to come out and cap the line at Westover. I flew down to Simsbury Connecticut(4B9) tonight and tomorrow the whole thing will be replaced with a non copper flex hose :)

The amount of things I've learned in my first 6 months of aircraft ownership has been almost overwhelming lol

Anyone know of a traveling A&P in my area? Fuel line between carb and fuel pressure gauge has sprung a leak. No mechanics on my field. The one show that can do it is weeks out...

I fully plan on having it fixed by a qualified mechanic I'm just trying to figure our what to tell them when I call. Hopefully I can find someone that will travel to KCEF.

Upon departure yesterday I started to smell avgas and my fuel pressure took a dump. I returned to the airport, opened the cowl, and this is what I found. Is this the line that goes to the fuel pressure gauge? It hooks to a hose that goes to the carburetor in the other and goes up into the...
