powermate regulator

[samuell]

After spending $2500 on trying to get my uhf and vhf working a friend advised me to try a powermate.I had noise on transmission, noise in my headsets,my transmission was muffled and it just goes on and on.I installed the powermate and instant fix, highly recomend to anyone with noise or bad transmision( fantastic).This process has taken two and a half years to fix,save yourself alot of trouble and install a powermate , just google powermate regulator and it comes up.

Looks interesting! Not sure about the dodgy midi Land Down Under on their website, though!

I am interrrested in what the "powermate" is. If it is a filter then it is not fixing the problem but suppressing the original problem rather then fixing it. The original set up should work?

 

I had transponder noise on one VHF originally but fixed by running higher qualiaty Coax cable and separation of cables.

 

If everything is shielded to earth properly then interference [electrical or spark] should not be a problem.

IMO the main issue is the dirty 'ripple' current from the permanent magnet alternators in the Jabby AND Rotax - low loss cable, shielding & good grounding MAY NOT fix any issues that's why some manufacturers include an electrolytic capacitor in the system or you could use a better regulator. Then there is the problem of overvoltage protection, I wonder how many have that covered.

All the wireing is shielded i had a bigger capacitor put in , i had nano farrad things put in the plug leads and it goes on.The powermate did the job strait away.Its charging just on 14 volts.
