Ask any of your >friends who have one... > The effect of clouds or rain on a radio signal will vary depending on the frequency of the signal. So results on one type of system (i.e. TV dish) may not be relevant to another type of system. Civil GPS uses frequencies around 1.6 Ghz (approximately). The info I can find on Direct Broadcast Satellite TV is that it uses frequencies around 12 Ghz. Big difference. What frequency were you using when you did the moon bounce stuff? -- Kevin Horton RV-8 (baffles, induction air, oil cooler) Ottawa, Canada http://go.phpwebhosting.com/~khorton/rv8/

    --> AeroElectric-List message posted by: "Fred Stucklen" <wstucklen1@cox.net> Listers, Anybody know where I might obtain the insulators for microphone and headset jacks. These are the special fiber washers that insulate the microphone & headset jacks from the panel. They are required by most intercom/radio installations. They did not come with my SL10SM (UPS) audio panel..... Fred Stucklen RV-6A Wiring the instrument panel

    Subject: Re: Mic & Phone Jack Insulators
    --> AeroElectric-List message posted by: Michel Therrien <mtherr@yahoo.com> You can find them on the Aeroelectric's web site. Another way of doing this is to mount the jacks on those black boxes sold at Radio-Shack. See below the panel on each side how I mounted mine: http://mthobby.pcperfect.com/ch601/images/DCP01821.JPG Michel --- Fred Stucklen <wstucklen1@cox.net> wrote: > --> AeroElectric-List message posted by: "Fred > Stucklen" <wstucklen1@cox.net> > > > Listers, > > Anybody know where I might obtain the insulators > for microphone and headset jacks.

    Subject: Antenna Electronics
    --> AeroElectric-List message posted by: "Duane Bentley" <dbentley@fuse.net> Maybe I have some new, defective antennas or I don't understand the electronics. I've read Bob's chapter on antenna theory, but don't readily see the answer to my questions. I'm installing the various nav & com antennas on my RV6 and decided to do a continuity check on them before connecting the cables. On the Aeroelectric transponder antenna, at the connector, the inner pin is insulated from the outer, and the inner has continuity with the shaft, all as I would expect. On my Comant VOR/LOC/GS cat wiskers, the ohm meter says the inner pin and outer connector are hooked together somewhere inside and have complete continuity, but the two "whiskers" are insulated from everything. The Comant marker beacon antenna also has continuity between the inner pin and the outer connector shell, but the actual antenna is buried inside the housing and I can't check that out. The bent whip Com antenna is different from the rest. The inner pin and outer shell are insulated from each other, but there is also no continuity between the inner pin and the whip. So, are the electronics correct, or do I have some defective antenna? Thanks Duane Bentley

    Subject: Emp wire bundle
    --> AeroElectric-List message posted by: "Larry Bowen" <Larry@BowenAero.com> I have wire runs going to the empannage area for three things: trim servo, Pointer ELT, and rudder position/strobe combo light. The ELT and strobe wires are shielded. (The ELT itself and its antennea are both beneath the VS.) Should there be any problems bundling all three of these wire runs together? - Larry Bowen Larry@BowenAero.com http://BowenAero.com 2003: The year of flight!

    Subject: FS: Bendex electric AI
    --> AeroElectric-List message posted by: richard@riley.net I have ended up with a spare electric AI. The bad news is that it's 110v 400hz 3 phase. The good news is that the inverters are available from http://freespace.virgin.net/andy.wright617/ for $160. The one I have is a Bendex#1978130-1, cageable with a full ball display. Removed as serviceable and kept as a serviceable spare with a yellow tag, sealed with desiccant and caged. I'm told it's mounted in an ATI-3 rack. I have $550 in it, I'll sell it for the same.
