After searching and reading several threads on similar topics, I'm still confused and need to ask this at the risk of starting another grounding debate ( I hope not! )...
When routing audio signals between an the various pieces of avionics, what is the best practice when the source of the signals does not provide both a high and low signal? For example, my audio panel (KMA 24) does not have an input for COM1 audio (low), only COM1 audio (high). The wiring on my comm (KX 155) has both, with an installation note to ground the shield at the audio panel.
Given that, is my assumption that I tie COM1 audio (low) on the comm to the chassis ground of the audio panel (along with the shielding) correct?
