    We had our COM2 radio removed and it resolved all our GPS jamming issues on the aircraft. The radio is simply too far out of spec and causing all sorts of noise all over the spectrum. So while we go through the annoying process of getting everyone to agree on what to replace it with (if anything, or just have one radio), here is me doing a VFR practice approach with the GPS and testing the radios. We also had the coax replaced, new connectors, and new COM antennas.

    Then on approach I told my partner to look for me and she got some photos of me up in the sky.

    Now if you'll excuse me, as the president of the club I have to go setup a meeting and an agenda to discuss radio replacement. I, for one, am not going to suggest we get another Bendix/King KX 155.

    Flying over the Fox River on a lazy day, looking down at Wrightstown, WI (I think). Small town spanning the river with farm fields around it. There was significant haze present limiting visibility
