Joe: you are correct. twisting the wire will reduce the chance of interference ... but not a 100% guarantee. best though, to keep all electrical and metal as far away from compass as possible. :: Dave Scobie --- On Sun, 9/30/12, Joe Murphy <seagray@embarqmail.com> wrote:
I have a Richie compass on the portside bulkhead. I'd like to put my remote mike for the VHF and a 12V outlet as well as a Uniden QT206 depth sounder on the same bulkhead. I've heard that I need to twist all the 12v wiring as a start but will all this electrical stuff interfere with my compass? I'd like to keep all the electronic stuff on the port side because it is a shorter and easier wiring path to the battery. Thanks much. Joe SeaFrog M17
