My Bendix/King Skymap II is built into the panel. It works perfectly (I
think) until the radio is switched on, then gives the message "No fix
possible".
The 'Status' screen then shows no signal from the satellites.
Because the panel/electrics are the only parts of the plane I did not build
myself, I am not sure of the aerial position, but I believe it is adjacent to
or on top of the radio stack. People who know more about these things than
I say that shouldn't be a problem, but I am not so sure.
I was thinking of removing the panel (not my favourite way of spending the
day) and moving the aerial to another location but before I do that does anyone
have any other suggestions for the cause of the problem, (eg wiring fault)
or any other investigations that I should do while it is out?
Thanks in advance.
