Hi Guys, I have recently fitted an Air Magic Strobe, Lovely light and plenty of positive comments on how visible i am. However, i cannot hear myself think, receiving major interferance on the radio and rather opt to switch of the strobe. Doesnt work to well when switched off, Has anyone else experienced a similar problem, and if so how was it rectified????? I tried unplugging the aerial and that seemed to sort out the problem. But , no aerial, no radio!!! If anyone can help , would appreciate it.
Cheers.
Strobe Light.

I had the same problem but solved it today.
Remove the safety cable and make sure you insulate the strobe from the air frame.
Try and move the strobe away from the aerial.
I fly a topless wing and made a bracket with the strobe upside down and just below the aerial.
My problems are solved
