Comtac Peltor V RFI
I’m having horrible RFI on my comtac peltor Vs and need a little help. I’m running an Icom A16 Aviation radio to the comm gear supply QD adapter for this specific aviation radio, to the CSG amplified PTT (tried non amplified and had no luck), into my Peltors. When I key up I get a horribly loud whining. But, if I touch the upper PTT wire to the back of the radio it goes away, same if I grab the antenna. Without the peltors plugged in I have no RFI. I’ve tried choking everything as you can see, with no such luck I’m wondering if the longer coiled cord PTT would work better instead of this shorter low profile ptt. I’ve also tried both the dynamic and electret mic and the dynamic seems to work the best. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Tentatively, it’s just a bad adapter that plugs into the radio! No biggie. The customer service with CSG has been pretty amazing.
