Narrative:
I was alone on a trip leg in bonanza xx from moultrie, GA, to kissimmee, fl. I was being followed near ocala by jacksonville center and was assigned a transponder code. Center inquired if I was ready to descend for kissimmee and I replied I was and descended. Quite close to kissimmee, center broke me off and I called orlando approach on 199.4. They were extremely busy and, I believe, were working another plane with a call sign of X, but I thought I heard clearance. Near this time I experienced an unexpected overload on my electrical system and had to FLIP the battery switch to correct it. This required me to reprogram my GPS which contains the communication I was using. I was unable to reach orlando approach again and called kissimmee tower. I had veered west and was attempting to circle south of the disneyworld tfr and come back to the approach on runway 15, the runway in use, I was in contact with kissimmee tower as I joined the approach. If I violated the tfr it must have been at this point. I was cleared to land by kissimmee tower and landed on runway 15. I was advised that I had violated the disneyworld tfr.

Title: AIRSPACE INCURSION WHEN A BE35 COMMERCIAL PLT ENTERS THE DISNEYWORLD TFR AT 1500 FT 10 NM, NW OF ISM, FL.
Narrative: I WAS ALONE ON A TRIP LEG IN BONANZA XX FROM MOULTRIE, GA, TO KISSIMMEE, FL. I WAS BEING FOLLOWED NEAR OCALA BY JACKSONVILLE CTR AND WAS ASSIGNED A XPONDER CODE. CTR INQUIRED IF I WAS READY TO DESCEND FOR KISSIMMEE AND I REPLIED I WAS AND DESCENDED. QUITE CLOSE TO KISSIMMEE, CTR BROKE ME OFF AND I CALLED ORLANDO APCH ON 199.4. THEY WERE EXTREMELY BUSY AND, I BELIEVE, WERE WORKING ANOTHER PLANE WITH A CALL SIGN OF X, BUT I THOUGHT I HEARD CLRNC. NEAR THIS TIME I EXPERIENCED AN UNEXPECTED OVERLOAD ON MY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND HAD TO FLIP THE BATTERY SWITCH TO CORRECT IT. THIS REQUIRED ME TO REPROGRAM MY GPS WHICH CONTAINS THE COM I WAS USING. I WAS UNABLE TO REACH ORLANDO APCH AGAIN AND CALLED KISSIMMEE TWR. I HAD VEERED W AND WAS ATTEMPTING TO CIRCLE S OF THE DISNEYWORLD TFR AND COME BACK TO THE APCH ON RWY 15, THE RWY IN USE, I WAS IN CONTACT WITH KISSIMMEE TWR AS I JOINED THE APCH. IF I VIOLATED THE TFR IT MUST HAVE BEEN AT THIS POINT. I WAS CLRED TO LAND BY KISSIMMEE TWR AND LANDED ON RWY 15. I WAS ADVISED THAT I HAD VIOLATED THE DISNEYWORLD TFR.
