Re: Open Cockpit USB Radio using IOCModules.
I would agree, sounds like the power supply via the USB will not handle the 3 of them. When you start using Magenta you will find it a pain, as you will have to set all frequencies by hand instead of being tuned automatically.
I am not even sure that will work because if you have more than 1 radio, the others will not tune to the first one. Luckily I have my own designed 2 radios in the aircraft at the moment.

Re: Open Cockpit USB Radio using IOCModules.
Tried a hub with external pwr.....no go. Obviously there is a problem then somewhere....which i think lies in the length of the leads i'm using as it is 6.5m

If you are talking about USB cables then there is apparently a 5m limit on USB cables.

yeah was on about USB, i had a 3 x 1.8m going to a unpowered hub then a 5m going to the pc. The displays did not light up but the backlight did. I then connected 5m to each of the 1.8m then in2 the pc & they work fine. Had a look at the above thread & decided to try out 1 of the adaptors. Hopefully it works.
