hmmm
On two occasions i was told that planes were lost when they supposedly went into failsafe, then the plane went "crazy". One person who told me what happened was the pilot of one crashed plane. I think unless you program your tx it will default to last position hold.
Question for ya. Now if a plane in true fail safe flies erratically how is it really in fail safe??
On an Icom scanner is the tone and signal strength from a "good" radio some how displayed? Is their a meter or a bar graph?? If the Good radio is reading full scale you really don't know how strong it really is. The signal could be twice as strong as the meter or tone shows, but when it reads an interfering signal it may read 7/8 scale thus we think it is super strong. I just don't believe all the hype with these scanners.
I am not a radio expert nor do i claim to be so guide me if I am wrong here.
Hypothetically speaking;
If someone was trying to shoot someone down. Why would they deliberately pulse their radio on even after they successfully put someone in??
I really think these little pulses the scanners see are nothing very crucial. Just like Easy said
"I don't know what scanner was being used, but I know my Icom is not narrow enough...it will read signals that are spaced in between our frequencies as interference."
What do you guys think???
