Cary added a new comment in Axes for PilotsFascinating. Really. But at the end, I conclude that the danger of using an axe without practice and practice and practice far outweighs its usefulness for me. I think that's true of a lot of tools--improperly used, they become dangerous. I have seen the ubiquitous Handyman Jack (now called a Hi-Lif2019-11-05 17:05:12 -

Cary created a new forum topic Don't see more recent "sent" private messagesI've had some private contacts, and I have answered all of them, but nothing shows as sent for the last 6 months.

Cary,
You mentioned this in a recent post.
"they're HIDs, their power supplies generate a clicking sound over the radios"
I'm sure you and your mechanic know the usual things to check for eliminating this interference, I called the Manufacturer of some HIDs regarding this problem and they had a tune-able filter that removed it.

Cary I went up today, with a friend as PIC since I'm medically grounded temporarily, and purposely left them on the entire flight, which lasted 1.2 hours. My new headset (DC One-X) apparently does a better job of dampening out the interference, because although I could still hear them, it wasn't objectionable at all. I'll have to ask my friend if it bothered him at all, since he was wearing my old headset.
And yes, I do know about filters and such, but thanks for the reminder.
