On my last trip to Davis, CA when handed over to Oakland Ctr from Seattle, (134.2) I think, I keyed the Xmitter of COM1 (SL 30) and the ELT tripped. Same thing the next day with NorCal aprch on 132.XXX. I only had about 50 hrs on my ES and this was probably the first time I used a freg. above 130.XXX. The problem had not occurred before. I later verified it only happens at the higher frequencies. I talked to the tech people at ACK and they gave me the same story about the Bob Archer antennas. I too am a EE but have no experience with RF stuff. Still, I feel I'm getting the old "blame the other guy" story from ACK. If anyone on the list can shed some light on this problem, it would be much appreciated. Leon Smith, LNCE (65 hrs and loving it.) N63LS
