Technical Director Steve Kaluf SUDDENLY explanation someone club field loses aircraft Upon checking out radio system found still operational batteries prove charged Control rods surfaces intact short nothing can found wrong aircraft its control systems next question pilot error course Just kidding case lets assume aircraft straight level flight suddenly dove ground day two later two aircraft go under almost identical circumstances fact two same frequency other adjacent frequency point people club probably afraid fly sorts stories begin crop up about someone sitting woods transmitter Everyone sure someone out get Wait Hold onlets examine what going try actually determine what could causing problem May 1996 Model Aviation column detailed few references can used find out what other users may operating close own frequencies same issue Now Youre Talking section contained report club Houston Texas area having interference problems handled situation report wellwritten contains good information club tracked problem down suggest take look two articles meantime lets look what can right away help determine just exactly what going club field AMA district has elected Vice President Within district VP appoints Frequency Coordinator volunteers help resolve frequency problems within district will find overall people very knowledgeable Additionally began phase-in program new new anymore frequencies AMA purchased good-quality scanning/analyzing equipment district equipment available AMA member borrow Typically responsibility District Frequency Coordinator coordinate use equipment some cases will find District Vice President performs task Again equipment place use Realize others within district may also have requests use equipment patient representative tells available right away Ask ship first available interval would suggest call Frequency Coordinator first large districts may find two listed call nearest coordinator may tell contact District VP districts will find two primary pieces equipment available ICOM 7000 Scanning Receiver Aero Spectra Channel Analyzer Both excellent units both have different capabilities Im electrical engineer nor know theory behind should certain testing However have fair amount practical handson experience comes conducting tests find interference flying site So expect what Im going describe might picked apart knowledge it does work cases easy Lets look equipment first Aero Spectra Channel Analyzer small handheld device designed manufactured Jim Hauser Aero Spectra unit like small spectrum analyzer expect accurate $15000 analyzer does excellent job its intended purpose unit has graphic LCD display will show entire 72 MHz band once Signals band shown vertical lines display display graduated left right 72 MHz left 73 MHz right unit will also display 50 MHz 53 MHz 75 MHz quick glance can immediately see transmitters turned simply looking number spikes lines display Interfering signals would also show up same way want determine what frequency strength spike simply use two arrow buttons move cursor over spike want look Once push mode zoom button display will zoom particular signal push button will take four different ways looking signal live waveform display type display full-blown spectrum analyzer would show shows strength signal sideband overall narrow signal Another screen freezes waveform display next will show digital display channel number signal strength Neat isnt ICOM 7000 Scanning Receiver high-end desktop scanner can scan frequencies matter seconds signal detected will lock variable time length unlock continue scan also has audio ability can listen what tuned unit has analog meter can display signal strength center tuning main tuning dial has digital display used conjunction meter allows accurately display frequency signal analyzing OK much equipment suggest request both pieces equipment feel can effective check using conjunction other will also find will difficult Frequency Coordinator send both pieces because high demand available ask Channel Analyzer wonderful unit very easy use What follows assumes have both pieces equipment However get Channel Analyzer use same proceduresjust substitute Channel Analyzer ICOM 7000 first thing recommend people equipment received play home learn bit about Simple instructions packed unit Turn transmitter make sure dont live near flying site Look listen signal put out transmitter both analyzer scanner have two transmitters different frequencies turn both Again look signals zoom Channel Analyzer Listen scanner get feel ear what sound like AM FM PCM sound little different After little practice will able tell difference Some people can tell brand radio listening its signal Once comfortable operation units head field Most ICOM 7000 have 12 volt power lead Ask coordinator about dont have house current available field site like check Channel Analyzer first no transmitters turned December 1996 185 see signals zoom will notice hopefully actually just little off frequencies 10 KIHz off frequencies spaced 20 KHz apart other find spikes strong probably over 7 dB digital display may have concern find right RC frequencies have concern either case next step like to listen frequency using ICOM 7000 frequency right frequencies enter frequency numeric keypad press ENTER will lock scanner entered frequency slightly off frequencies take frequency lower add 10 KHz enter scanner example seeing just higher channel 26 72310 MHz add 10 KHz 723 10 equal 72320 should get close frequency want listen Turn squelch way down scanner put analog meter center mode turn tuning dial right left see direction makes center Once centered have frequency looking Ive found ICOM 7000s center right leg N word CENTER meter Now listen scanner hear voice write down anything might help identify transmission originates also switch analog meter center signal strength time important thing look now strength meter Narrowband receivers seem able reject anything has strength level 9 less getting signals over 9 very near RC frequency may have cause concern After looking suspicious spikes identified Channel Analyzer turn squelch back up scanner just point static cuts out put scanner scan mode pushing MODE button Refer instrnctions packed scanner will cause scanner scan RC frequencies Scan-Delay control should set infinity symbol will cause scanner stop indefinably receives signal locks signal less 9 meter hit MODE button cause scanner continue scan Continue procedure until have identified problem areas write down list should include Frequency Signal Strength time/day observation Also sure list type sound heard descriptive possible So go have several choices give AMA call let us try I Robert

Technical Director Steve Kaluf SUDDENLY explanation someone club field loses aircraft Upon checking out radio system found still operational batteries prove charged Control rods surfaces intact short nothing can found wrong aircraft its control systems next question pilot error course Just kidding case lets assume aircraft straight level flight suddenly dove ground day two later two aircraft go under almost identical circumstances fact two same frequency other adjacent frequency point people club probably afraid fly sorts stories begin crop up about someone sitting woods transmitter Everyone sure someone out get Wait Hold onlets examine what going try actually determine what could causing problem May 1996 Model Aviation column detailed few references can used find out what other users may operating close own frequencies same issue Now Youre Talking section contained report club Houston Texas area having interference problems handled situation report wellwritten contains good information club tracked problem down suggest take look two articles meantime lets look what can right away help determine just exactly what going club field AMA district has elected Vice President Within district VP appoints Frequency Coordinator volunteers help resolve frequency problems within district will find overall people very knowledgeable Additionally began phase-in program new new anymore frequencies AMA purchased good-quality scanning/analyzing equipment district equipment available AMA member borrow Typically responsibility District Frequency Coordinator coordinate use equipment some cases will find District Vice President performs task Again equipment place use Realize others within district may also have requests use equipment patient representative tells available right away Ask ship first available interval would suggest call Frequency Coordinator first large districts may find two listed call nearest coordinator may tell contact District VP districts will find two primary pieces equipment available ICOM 7000 Scanning Receiver Aero Spectra Channel Analyzer Both excellent units both have different capabilities Im electrical engineer nor know theory behind should certain testing However have fair amount practical handson experience comes conducting tests find interference flying site So expect what Im going describe might picked apart knowledge it does work cases easy Lets look equipment first Aero Spectra Channel Analyzer small handheld device designed manufactured Jim Hauser Aero Spectra unit like small spectrum analyzer expect accurate $15000 analyzer does excellent job its intended purpose unit has graphic LCD display will show entire 72 MHz band once Signals band shown vertical lines display display graduated left right 72 MHz left 73 MHz right unit will also display 50 MHz 53 MHz 75 MHz quick glance can immediately see transmitters turned simply looking number spikes lines display Interfering signals would also show up same way want determine what frequency strength spike simply use two arrow buttons move cursor over spike want look Once push mode zoom button display will zoom particular signal push button will take four different ways looking signal live waveform display type display full-blown spectrum analyzer would show shows strength signal sideband overall narrow signal Another screen freezes waveform display next will show digital display channel number signal strength Neat isnt ICOM 7000 Scanning Receiver high-end desktop scanner can scan frequencies matter seconds signal detected will lock variable time length unlock continue scan also has audio ability can listen what tuned unit has analog meter can display signal strength center tuning main tuning dial has digital display used conjunction meter allows accurately display frequency signal analyzing OK much equipment suggest request both pieces equipment feel can effective check using conjunction other will also find will difficult Frequency Coordinator send both pieces because high demand available ask Channel Analyzer wonderful unit very easy use What follows assumes have both pieces equipment However get Channel Analyzer use same proceduresjust substitute Channel Analyzer ICOM 7000 first thing recommend people equipment received play home learn bit about Simple instructions packed unit Turn transmitter make sure dont live near flying site Look listen signal put out transmitter both analyzer scanner have two transmitters different frequencies turn both Again look signals zoom Channel Analyzer Listen scanner get feel ear what sound like AM FM PCM sound little different After little practice will able tell difference Some people can tell brand radio listening its signal Once comfortable operation units head field Most ICOM 7000 have 12 volt power lead Ask coordinator about dont have house current available field site like check Channel Analyzer first no transmitters turned December 1996 185 see signals zoom will notice hopefully actually just little off frequencies 10 KIHz off frequencies spaced 20 KHz apart other find spikes strong probably over 7 dB digital display may have concern find right RC frequencies have concern either case next step like to listen frequency using ICOM 7000 frequency right frequencies enter frequency numeric keypad press ENTER will lock scanner entered frequency slightly off frequencies take frequency lower add 10 KHz enter scanner example seeing just higher channel 26 72310 MHz add 10 KHz 723 10 equal 72320 should get close frequency want listen Turn squelch way down scanner put analog meter center mode turn tuning dial right left see direction makes center Once centered have frequency looking Ive found ICOM 7000s center right leg N word CENTER meter Now listen scanner hear voice write down anything might help identify transmission originates also switch analog meter center signal strength time important thing look now strength meter Narrowband receivers seem able reject anything has strength level 9 less getting signals over 9 very near RC frequency may have cause concern After looking suspicious spikes identified Channel Analyzer turn squelch back up scanner just point static cuts out put scanner scan mode pushing MODE button Refer instrnctions packed scanner will cause scanner scan RC frequencies Scan-Delay control should set infinity symbol will cause scanner stop indefinably receives signal locks signal less 9 meter hit MODE button cause scanner continue scan Continue procedure until have identified problem areas write down list should include Frequency Signal Strength time/day observation Also sure list type sound heard descriptive possible So go have several choices give AMA call let us try I Robert

Technical Director Steve Kaluf SUDDENLY explanation someone club field loses aircraft Upon checking out radio system found still operational batteries prove charged Control rods surfaces intact short nothing can found wrong aircraft its control systems next question pilot error course Just kidding case lets assume aircraft straight level flight suddenly dove ground day two later two aircraft go under almost identical circumstances fact two same frequency other adjacent frequency point people club probably afraid fly sorts stories begin crop up about someone sitting woods transmitter Everyone sure someone out get Wait Hold onlets examine what going try actually determine what could causing problem May 1996 Model Aviation column detailed few references can used find out what other users may operating close own frequencies same issue Now Youre Talking section contained report club Houston Texas area having interference problems handled situation report wellwritten contains good information club tracked problem down suggest take look two articles meantime lets look what can right away help determine just exactly what going club field AMA district has elected Vice President Within district VP appoints Frequency Coordinator volunteers help resolve frequency problems within district will find overall people very knowledgeable Additionally began phase-in program new new anymore frequencies AMA purchased good-quality scanning/analyzing equipment district equipment available AMA member borrow Typically responsibility District Frequency Coordinator coordinate use equipment some cases will find District Vice President performs task Again equipment place use Realize others within district may also have requests use equipment patient representative tells available right away Ask ship first available interval would suggest call Frequency Coordinator first large districts may find two listed call nearest coordinator may tell contact District VP districts will find two primary pieces equipment available ICOM 7000 Scanning Receiver Aero Spectra Channel Analyzer Both excellent units both have different capabilities Im electrical engineer nor know theory behind should certain testing However have fair amount practical handson experience comes conducting tests find interference flying site So expect what Im going describe might picked apart knowledge it does work cases easy Lets look equipment first Aero Spectra Channel Analyzer small handheld device designed manufactured Jim Hauser Aero Spectra unit like small spectrum analyzer expect accurate $15000 analyzer does excellent job its intended purpose unit has graphic LCD display will show entire 72 MHz band once Signals band shown vertical lines display display graduated left right 72 MHz left 73 MHz right unit will also display 50 MHz 53 MHz 75 MHz quick glance can immediately see transmitters turned simply looking number spikes lines display Interfering signals would also show up same way want determine what frequency strength spike simply use two arrow buttons move cursor over spike want look Once push mode zoom button display will zoom particular signal push button will take four different ways looking signal live waveform display type display full-blown spectrum analyzer would show shows strength signal sideband overall narrow signal Another screen freezes waveform display next will show digital display channel number signal strength Neat isnt ICOM 7000 Scanning Receiver high-end desktop scanner can scan frequencies matter seconds signal detected will lock variable time length unlock continue scan also has audio ability can listen what tuned unit has analog meter can display signal strength center tuning main tuning dial has digital display used conjunction meter allows accurately display frequency signal analyzing OK much equipment suggest request both pieces equipment feel can effective check using conjunction other will also find will difficult Frequency Coordinator send both pieces because high demand available ask Channel Analyzer wonderful unit very easy use What follows assumes have both pieces equipment However get Channel Analyzer use same proceduresjust substitute Channel Analyzer ICOM 7000 first thing recommend people equipment received play home learn bit about Simple instructions packed unit Turn transmitter make sure dont live near flying site Look listen signal put out transmitter both analyzer scanner have two transmitters different frequencies turn both Again look signals zoom Channel Analyzer Listen scanner get feel ear what sound like AM FM PCM sound little different After little practice will able tell difference Some people can tell brand radio listening its signal Once comfortable operation units head field Most ICOM 7000 have 12 volt power lead Ask coordinator about dont have house current available field site like check Channel Analyzer first no transmitters turned December 1996 185 see signals zoom will notice hopefully actually just little off frequencies 10 KIHz off frequencies spaced 20 KHz apart other find spikes strong probably over 7 dB digital display may have concern find right RC frequencies have concern either case next step like to listen frequency using ICOM 7000 frequency right frequencies enter frequency numeric keypad press ENTER will lock scanner entered frequency slightly off frequencies take frequency lower add 10 KHz enter scanner example seeing just higher channel 26 72310 MHz add 10 KHz 723 10 equal 72320 should get close frequency want listen Turn squelch way down scanner put analog meter center mode turn tuning dial right left see direction makes center Once centered have frequency looking Ive found ICOM 7000s center right leg N word CENTER meter Now listen scanner hear voice write down anything might help identify transmission originates also switch analog meter center signal strength time important thing look now strength meter Narrowband receivers seem able reject anything has strength level 9 less getting signals over 9 very near RC frequency may have cause concern After looking suspicious spikes identified Channel Analyzer turn squelch back up scanner just point static cuts out put scanner scan mode pushing MODE button Refer instrnctions packed scanner will cause scanner scan RC frequencies Scan-Delay control should set infinity symbol will cause scanner stop indefinably receives signal locks signal less 9 meter hit MODE button cause scanner continue scan Continue procedure until have identified problem areas write down list should include Frequency Signal Strength time/day observation Also sure list type sound heard descriptive possible So go have several choices give AMA call let us try I Robert
