I've had the errant output from time to time too.  When I checked my system
I found a tiny bit of moisture in the lines that had collected at a low
spot.  After removing the moisture, the error disappeared.  I now check the
lines periodically.

Nothing is foolproof to the sufficiently talented fool.

Subject: [LML] Re: Compass calibration

Speaking of calibration I have been meaning to ask a burning question about
Tru Trak a/p.  mine is confused about heading.  It is usually 30 degrees or
more off of actual heading.  Is there a calibration mode for the A/P?

My device not infrequently messages that it wants to shut off and some times
it does.  At other times it has introduced errant output to the point I have
to disconnect to avoid making unwanted attitude changes.  A few times I've
had it not want to let go and I have had to do the equivalent of popping the
c/b.  

It seems to be doing this less and less and maybe the a/p heading is
gradually getting closer to the Cheltons.  

Any thoughts?

1/29 became 2/20 and 5/23 became 6/24. Be sure to check whether the airport
where you do your calibration has changed recently and if field compass rose
(if there is one) has been updated to match it or you will mis-calibrate
your compass.
