Anybody who's interested in how the new AvMap EKP-IV looks when mounted on
a Cherokee yoke, feel free to look at:


Sweet. I like the slightly smaller footprint.

One small problem that I notice is that, either the high
resolution screen or the embedded processor, is causing some high pitched
noise on my com radios.


I've never noticed anything like that. We've got the antenna wire running
down the yoke shaft, under the panel, to the left, and then up to the top of
the panel. I've zip-tied everything neatly underneath, so there are almost
no wires visible, and no interference has been noted.

Does the pitch change as you adjust the brightness?

I'm also finding that a large high resolution display leave one open to
information overload. I haven't quite tweaked all the display options,
for different zoom levels, to my liking yet. The AvMap also insists on


Yeah, there's a LOT of information presented. Not only will you get used
to it, you will soon be unwilling to fly without it.
