Even with the GA26C, I've heard of folks having sporadic problems. I do
not have problems in my airplane with my radios, but I suspect that in
some cases, comm radios may still create a problem for some folks. I
believe that the KX155 in particular can cause problems, as can certain
other radios.

Since changing to the GA26C I've had no further reception problems, and my
NAV/COM 1 is a KX155.


I believe that there is a filter that's supposed to be installed on
older KX155 units during installation of a panel-mount GPS. I don't
recall the source of that information off-hand, but I remember reading
about it during my recent research into replacing my KX170B. I elected
to get the KX170B fixed for now, though I will probably replace one of
them with a 430W in the near future.
