In one of my planes it is necessary to use two Futaba coreless servos
on a "Y" harness. The problem is that when the servos are connected
and the radio turned on, the servos chatter like they're trying to
find center all the time. I have tried caps across the power leads,
a stutter stoper (2 parts of a hex inverter on the signal line),
and a seperate battery pack for the servos. NO LUCK. I called those
wonderful folks at Futaba and after being on hold for about 45 minutes
they said that if the servos chatter on a Y harness don't use the servos
on a Y harness. And they pay those guys for this stuff! I have also
experienced the same problem on two different receivers, so the receiver
isn't the problem. The radios are 7UAP 1024 PCMs.  ANY ADVISE, COMMENTS,
SOLUTIONS?  I am considering buying a JR 10 Channel PCM. Do they have the
same problem?     THANKS GROUP!!!!!
