Nope, but I'll certainly try that!  Maybe cover up the whole engine!!!

  Ron,

  have you tried a makeshift Faraday cage?  warp some foil around the ignition unit, ground the foil and see if it reduces the noise...

    Yep.  Spinning the timing head does indeed make the spark noise on the Garmin radio.

      When you spin it in that environment, do you hear the noise in your radios?

I just spun it by hand.  I meant to take an RC starter motor and turn it but 
I forgot to get it before I took off for the airport.  It made sparks on a 
test plug and you could hear it on the radio.

What RPM did you run the EI at when it was out of the mag hole...
