I have a friend with a TKM mx300 radio that has a strange problem.
He cannot hear KLIT approach on one of thier frequencies but he can
talk to them. He can hear other planes around him and talk to other planes
on that frequency. He can change over to the other approach frequency and he
can hear and talk just fine to control. This has happened to him twice. I
his radio possesed ? Can it be excersied ?

My guess would be a null in the antenna pattern in one direction.
Obviously the radio is receiving and transmitting. It could also be a
null off of ATC's transmitting antenna. I have had this happen to me
before too. Turning the airplane and/or getting to a different place
usually fixes the problem.

I suggested to him that his altitude and placement from the
atc antenna might be the problem, but he explained to me that he did try it
from several radials and also when he was within sight of the airport.

I defenetly think the radio is possesed or it is a bad conection in the
headset wiering. If he frequently shaking his head while keeping watch on
the mysterious frequensy you will see the approach will break through. If he
shakes to much there will be a RFI (radio frequency interference) which can
be like the ANR systems in the special ANR head sets. However I think he
will feel pain before that happens. I would just defenetly avoid that
frequency.
Hope I was to some help // Jan SM3EXN

This sound more like an ATC problem than his problem.
I fly through PHY airspace a lot and there are areas where they can hear me
well, but I cannot hear them. I request a different frequency or they do a
dual transmission on two frequencies at the same time and problem solved.
Not My Problem!
