    David,

    Thank you for the info! I have now heard both great and not-so-great reviews on the ICOM tech support. How is the sound quality and intercom set up? Did you use the aux imputs at all? Any setting on the display to help with the sun issues?

    I didn't use the aux inputs. the intercome took a lot of trial adjustments and is now working fine. not much you can do about the display with the sun.

    Filters in the wingtips will not help if your strobe power supply is in the fuselage. There are large voltage pulses that travel the length of the conductors to the strobe tubes. Shielded cable is normally used with the shield solidly grounded at the power supply end and not connected at the wingtip end.

    I have this arrangement and don't have any audio interference from the strobes.

    Maybe you're using self contained strobe systems in the wingtip. If so, a sketch of how you have them and the filters arranged would be useful.

    I'd go back to your strobe vendor with your installation details and symptoms. I'm sure they've run into this issue before.

    You may not need a bigger filter, but one designed for higher frequency or hopefully none at all.
