Re: SSB Ground
Is your Icom 802 connected to the grounding (the dynaplates), too? If yes, disconnect it, as it may create electronic loops. The experts say, only the tuner should be connected to the grounding,

Re: SSB Ground
Hi Joerg, you have the best equipment available installed. all parts are first class.
Of course you can check it with an SWR meter, but I am not sure if that will help you identifying the problem.

Re: Santorin C Drive leaks
Hello Volker, unfortunately you will have to change the seals to remedy this problem.
Normally when we change the seals we also change the wearable bushing. All available thrue Amel S.A.V. Santorin

Re: Santorin C Drive leaks
Hi Volker,
Amel uses now SAE90, 15/40 is also ok, but no ATF! ATF is used for the gearbox, not for the drive.

Re: Santorin C Drive leaks
Hallo Volker,
attached you will find the manual and drawing for the C-Drive!!
The oil is the same as for engine 15/40!!
You must lift out for repair the seal.

Testing with SWR- Meter from exampel Diawa is an easy test or look for help by a local HAM-radio Club. Try to google your Location and Ham-radio Club.

Hi Frederic,
Did amel supply these parts for you? I'm hoping to replace the same mounts in the coming weeks as the engine is out of our Mango.
Thanks,
