If you send it back to ACK they will add a resistor and a choke to the remote control box cable for little or no cost. The obvious fix is to merely route the ELT remote control line on the opposite side of the fuselage from the com antenna wires. It works fine in many installations (mine!) I'm aware of so send that other (EXPENSIVE) thing back ! Lloyd
