STATIC DISCHARGERS
Static dischargers are installed at various points throughout the
airframe to reduce interference from precipitation static. Under some
severe static conditions, loss of radio signals is possible even with
static dischargers installed. Whenever possible, avoid known severe
precipitation areas to prevent loss of dependable radio signals. If
avoidance is impractical, minimize airspeed and anticipate temporary
loss of radio signals while in these areas.
Static dischargers lose their effectiveness with age, and therefore,
should be checked periodically (at least at every annual inspection) by
a qualified technician.
