Default Magnetometer??

David,
Hi, I don't know what the brand name of the magnetometer is, the system I
want to get is made by Garnd Rapids Technologies. I have the "Installation
Guide" which is vage as heck. I wanted to build a platform to mount it on in
the wing( nothing showing outside). My wing is full of junk, ferrous nuts,
bell cranks(two), electric fuel transfer pump, cables, and strobe wiring.
Today, I went and looked at another plane, it's a glastar without aux tanks.
He has a Blue Mountain system(high dollar), and his is about 6 inches away
from the bellcrank and right over a inspection plate(ferrous nuts). The
strobe wires are about 10 inches away, he says it works great.
I would think that all of these things work the same and should be just as
sensitive as the next. I'm going to put it in the right wing cause it's the
one on the table now. I won't know if it works or not until I finish
building. Oh, I haven't bought the system yet, I ordered the magnetometer so
I could mount it. If you want when I get it, I'll send you the info on the
unit.

it.
