FAA Goes Shopping for a Better Way to Find Stray Signals
The FAA is looking for technology that can detect unwanted radio-frequency energy in U.S. airspace and pinpoint where it comes from. For owners, the interest is practical. The navigation and communication equipment in a well-kept panel only works as well as the signals it receives. A tool that helps the agency find the source of a problem is the kind of quiet infrastructure work that keeps a Part 91 flight from Palm Beach to Aspen uneventful.
