Default PCAS interfering with radio

I'm getting strong interfrence on 123.3, 123.5, 122.8
& 121.5 whit my ZAON PCAS using ships power. No problem
if I use PCAS internal pen-cels. Anybody else had this
problem, how'd you fix it?

JJ, I'm in the process of wiring mine in but haven't tried it in the
air yet. Two thoughts: (1) try wrapping the ship's power lead twice
through a ferrite bead (with the bead close to the Zaon), and if that
fails (2) call Zaon at (800) 496-9430 on Tuesday for help. Good luck,
and please let us know if (and how) you solve the problem.

JJ,
Do you have any update on the fix for the "strong interfrence on
123.3, 123.5, 122.8
& 121 with my ZAON PCAS using ships power".

I used my PCAS yesterday and it worked flawlessly. I used 123.3 and
123.05 with no problems.
