Recently purchased an RV-8 with a King KX-125 Comm and noticed that when you depress the PTT to transmit the ammeter will deflect to the negative side and remain there for as long as you transmit. It will show anywhere from 5 to over 10 amps of discharge! The charging system seems to be working fine otherwise. If you turn on any of the accessories the ammeter responds normally. I ohm'ed the antenna to the airframe to see if there was some kind of short but there doesn't appear to be a problem. Any ideas?
