Al, All,
I so agree. Even though I know I have been guilty of this very thing, I also know I have chosen to change it too. I also do not always title an email to the specific issue addressed, sometimes trying to be cute.
HOWEVER, I will try to refrain from that for now on as I have tried to use the achieves an a number of occasions now and can find it an exercise in frustration.
What I tend to do it post about a topic that has been discussed before in order to find, sometimes basic, info that I need/want. I personally DO like the topics to be revisited often as sometimes a new persons perspective,
experience or just current verbiage can cause a light to turn on that did not do so before. I value this list so much and it has proven useful time and again, but I know we can do even better. I sometimes hesitate to post too quickly...or even reply, until
I can actually do a bit of my own poking around, both here and in my hangar.
I am currently re-re-re going over my wires. Everything so far has checked out PERFECT, which makes me even more annoyed. I would really like to find a smoking gun. I will be back out tracing the rest of the wires
tonight if all works out.
All the best,
Chris Barber
Houston

We’ve now had a long series of postings – Subject: Nothing to report; that has covered lots of good
info on P-port
mod, headsets; and other miscellaneous. Really; it’s not that tough to make a pertinent subject heading which makes the archives at least potentially useful.
Thanks,
Al

I have used both the Bose and the Lightspeed 30-3G. The Bose may be very slightly better, but the price is almost double. For the value, go
with the Lightspeed.
YMMV

My headset is the original Lightspeed 20K - about 12 years old and still fine. I've tried a Lightspeed 33K swapping back and forth
between it and the 20K in my buddy's Mooney. The 33K is slightly better than my old 20K, but not enough to justify upgrading.
I borrowed another friend's Lightspeed Zulu a few weeks ago and flew with it in the RV for about an hour. Significantly better than
my 20K and I plan on making that upgrade once I can scare up the cash.
Another friend has the Bose which he just bought. Havent been able to talk him out of it yet for a test flight but I hope to.

Re: nothing to report...
Is there anyone out there with a Lightspeed Zulu that can report on its effectiveness?

Mark,
Which ANR do you use?

Good report Mike. I know what you mean about a quieter muffler. My ANR headset does a good job of killing the low frequencies, but a poor job
on the higher frequencies. The rotary has both. So take your pick, turn the ANR on and listen to the high frequencies, or turn it off and listen to the low rumble. If I could only find an ANR that can do both I would be a happy camper.

I added another 1.3 hours to my total flight time today. And for the first time I landed and was completely satisfied with the flight.
I'd still like to quiet it down a little, but this was the first flight where I didnt feel like there was anything that had to be fixed before the next flight. Even the landing was pretty decent.
I've got just over 9 hours of flight time and about 40 hours of engine run time now. So far all of my flight time has been directly
over the airport because to venture away requires flying over about 50 miles of mostly unlandable mountainous terrain. But I'm starting to think seriously about stretching the legs a little...
