Is this for the aircraft mounted antenna? I use RG-58 cable and crimped on connector for my wheel mounted 196. Ron

    --> AeroElectric-List message posted by: jerb <ulflyer@verizon.net> Neil, By the sounds of things, you may want to use the type of DB-25 connector that uses crimp pins that snap in and lock into the connector housing rather than the type with fixed solder terminals. It takes an terminal/pin extractor tool to remove them. This would allow you to change or punch them out later if necessary to remove the stick grip. There are also solder versions of the individual connector contacts but you have to be careful not to use to much solder thus making the contacts too big to push into the housing. Radio Shack sells a cheap crimper that will work adequately for doing a small amount of DB 25 connector contacts. As for the connector and contacts you make want to get a good quality connector and crimp contacts from some place like Mouser Electronics or Altex Electronics. Order crimps for the wire gauge your using. (Note, get the contacts with "U" shape crimp not the round crimps as they take a very expensive tool to properly crimp them.) While convenient and readily available one thing I've found is much of the Radio Shack components having solder terminals like push button switches are made with a low melt point plastic rather than high temp melt resistant material or Bakelite. Even though your careful trying to be quick and not heat the terminal too hot, the housing will melt and terminals will actually move or loosen and the switches prove to be unreliable even to the point of not working. I've found them to be a waste of money and time especially when you pay nearly the same price for them as better quality components from electronic supply houses like above. Having worked in the electronic industry I've soldered enough small and miniature switches to know what I'm writing about. jerb At 10:41 AM 8/9/04 -0400, you wrote: >--> AeroElectric-List message posted by: Neil Clayton <harvey4@earthlink.net> > >Bob....I spent two frustrating hours trying to solder a D-sub connector >onto the 19+ wires of an Infinity Stick.

A couple of years back I ran into exactly the same problem. A signal saturated the receiver and opened the squelch. I could not reliably communicate. The problem turned out to be the ELT. It was receiving all manner of broadcast energy and then reradiating it as noise in the aircraft band. Disconnecting the antenna from the ELT solved the problem. The ELT was then sent back for repair. No more problems. BTW, I had several top-notch radio shops work on the problem as I was stumped (and I have a lot of experience with mobile radio troubleshooting). They couldn't find it either. It was an old A&P who remembered this problem with ELTs and suggested I look there. Brian Lloyd 6501 Red Hook Plaza brianl@lloyd.com Suite 201 +1.340.998.9447 St. Thomas, VI 00802

"High" resistance in this instance is not something you'd expect to measure with the ordinary ohmmeter.

No risks here. The effect of the pulsing phenomenon is not harmful to system components. We've discussed wiring induced regulator instability numerous times on the list. Old Pipers and Cessnas are well know for their ability to demonstrate this phenomenon. The problem arises only when the regulator's power input lead has dual duty: (1) sense bus voltage for purposes of regulation and (2) carry current used to excite the alternator's field. Depending on a lot of variables, the regulator can become unstable when (A) the resistance between bus and regulator is too high . . . and by "two high" we can be saying that 34 milliohms is fine and 60 milliohms causes problems. This problem can also crop up when (B) fat wires that tie alternator b-lead, battery and main bus are too high resistance meaning that wire gage is too small for the length of wire run. Condition B is much less likely but the risk is not zero. The fact that you can jumper between the bus and regulator and make the problem go away is a strong indicator that condition A is operating. Without seeing details of your wiring, I would suggest that you first increase the wire gage between bus and regulator. Try 14AWG . . . much lower resistance compared to 20AWG shown on my drawings. You don't need to change anything else. All other hardware is fine as is. If this doesn't fix it, you MIGHT have a bad regulator . . . again, badness is relative. Out of a production run of 100 regulators, you might have one or two new ones that have the problem in your particular installation while the rest work just fine. However, virtually ALL such regulators have a risk of instability when poor wiring choices or ageing joints drives the power path resistance up. The 100% cure for this phenomenon is to purchase a regulator with separate bus sense and field power leads. The B&C LR3 series regulators are good examples. Voltage regulators for turbine aircraft have had this feature for decades. I designed regulators for Cessna 30 years ago that featured independent field power and bus sense leads. This is not intended to discourage you from taking advantage of the low cost automotive products like the VR166 generic Ford regulator featured in some of my architecture diagrams. You simply need to understand the phenomenon and take prudent steps to keep it from happening and/or fix it when it does happen. > > The other issue that I hope you can address is the actual indications of >the ammeter. I understood that wiring the shunt/ammeter into the alternator >B-lead as per Z-4 would make it read as an alternator loadmeter, and not a >charge/discharge indicator, which it would were it wired into the battery >lead as usual. "As usual" might apply to Cessnas but the "usual" technique for Pipers is to wire ammeters up as alternator load meters. Either instrument has value for interpreting system behavior but the battery ammeter forces some modifications to architecture which are not compatible with the philosophies illustrated in hte Z-figures. If one has a low-volts warning light, then additional instruments in the form of voltmeters and ammeters of any style are just frosting on the cake . . . and not particularly useful to pilots. They're very useful to mechanics trying to troubleshoot a system that won't turn off the low voltage warning light. > > It partly works. It doesn't indicate a discharge while the starter motor >is cranking the engine. I'd say is "mostly works" . . . alternator ammeters won't show a discharge while cranking the engine. For that matter, battery ammeters generally don't either. Cranking currents are not routed through panel ammeters of any form. Your ammeter is performing as intended . . . > And it does indicate a healthy charge immediately >after starting.

Here's a question. What are you using for "loads". The alternator load meter should indicate total drain on alternator and unless everything in the airplane is OFF . . . the alternator loadmeter will never show zero amps. Are you truly reading "zero" or are your system load so small that they're difficult to read on your particular ammeter? What is the full-scale range of your ammeter? > > I've traced the wiring, from B-lead, through shunt, to 50A breaker, to >starter solenoid, and everything appears in order. > > I wondered if you might have any ideas. I'm betting that everything is fine except for the bus to regulator wiring resistance. Try up-sizing the wire. I think your ammeter is fine too . . . turn EVERYTHING on with engine rpm above 2000 and see what it reads. Bob . . .

    --> AeroElectric-List message posted by: jerb <ulflyer@verizon.net> It's now $22 from B&C Specialties - last item on the page. A while back they were $17 on one of the companies that sell safety equipment ( search wig wag flashers on google.com). http://www.bandcspecialty.com/cgi-bin/ez-catalog/cat_display.cgi?10X358218#gcl-1 I think its the unit made by Tracon (sp) - they make electronic replacement flashers for auto's - good units I might add if your changing the loading when pulling a trailer, their electronic units eliminate the problem of flashing to fast. They have on special unit that can be used as a wig-wag unit. Also check out the Show Me units - I have one of these on my plane and it works good. The unit I have allows you to select flash both, alternate flash, or both lights on. Also check the wattage of your landing lights and what a unit can handle. They can be purchased with wire pig tails or screw terminals, I got the one with terminal. Also there is flash rate, I got the slowest I could get which comes out to be a second on, a second off. I think mine cost me around $45 dollars - I use it for switching recognition (driving) lights on my ultralight. http://shop.store.yahoo.com/bcssales/shomranheadf.html Do a serch on google.com for Able 2 & Show ME wig wag flashers. There is a lot of price variation between places that sell them, I got mine from the manufacturer - they had the best price. jerb At 07:45 AM 8/11/04 -0700, you wrote: >--> AeroElectric-List message posted by: "Jaye and Scott Jackson" ><jayeandscott@telus.net> > >As a very simple unit is about $15 from B&C Specialties, there might not be >any savings to buying a used one. >Scott in vancouver >----- Original Message ----- >From: "Ken" <klehman@albedo.net> >To: <aeroelectric-list@matronics.com> >Subject: Re: AeroElectric-List: Wig Wag help on juliet > > > > --> AeroElectric-List message posted by: Ken <klehman@albedo.net> > > > > Is there an automotive application (or part number) for such a two way > > flasher that I could look for the next time I'm in the auto wrecker's? > > thanks > > Ken > > > > Charles E.

    Subject: Re: Load Dump report status.
    --> AeroElectric-List message posted by: "Paul Messinger" <paulm@olypen.com> Still recovering from work left behind to go to OSH. Also lots to the report as it was greatly expanded in scope as problems were discovered as testing developed. Problems need solutions, so after determining there was a "Problem" (problem is defined as something we did not think was as good as it could be; or simply not good at all) we needed to develop a better design and then build it and test it under the identical conditions so we can report 'this is not good' and here is a tested "better solution". Some "problems" were complete suprises. Nothing thast in our opinion that was a "must fix now", just things that need attention depending on your personal needs. Later this month is current estimate for report. Sadly what started out as a simple short test developed into a many month test/design/development/test effort. I have never been accused of short cuts and this is a good example of one thing leading to another. But there is the resulting data taken and hundreds of photographs etc that is a great test data base of basic electrical systems design. We did not get into 1 vs 2 batteries, different busses etc. Its just the basis of a simple system that can be expanded on and for the most part be reproduced by any one interested.

ACAD2000 was all I had installed on this computer at the time. He didn't say what version he was using. I have to pass drawings through two older versions to save-down to R12 which I have now done. The "old" drawing has been posted at: http://www.aeroelectric.com/AutoCAD_Drawings/2P4TR.DWG We aim to please but it also helps if the requester is a bit more specific as to their needs.

    Subject: Hello everyone. I'm having a terrible time getting
    the radio to work properly 2.5 SUB_HELLO Subject starts with "Hello" --> AeroElectric-List message posted by: "Rex & Jan Shaw" <rexjan@bigpond.com> Hello Chad, Rex Shaw here from Australia. I am a retired electronics tech and have just cured a similar problem in my Kitfox MKIV Classic Speedster/582. Bear in mind these things although appearing the same or similar don't always respond to the same solution. However you seem to have got very close to the answer but not quite. I too have an Icom handheld on the dash. I take the 12 volt wire that feeds the radio to a 2,200uf capacitor to ground then through an iron core choke then another 2,200uf to ground, this then goes into a 1.5 amp 9 volt regulator chip. The 9 volts out has a 10uf and .ooiuf to ground and goes to the intercomm and the noise cancelling in the headsets. Please note The 12 volt wire that goes to the radio still does in mine and it's fine but you could leave the 12 volt wire into the start of my circuit and take the radio feed from the second 2,200uf for extra filtering. The thing is the radio needs 12 volts but the intercomm and noise cancelling should be happy on 9 volts. The idea of dropping to 9 volts through the regulator chip [ about $1.oo ] is that this cuts all the noise and spikes of 1,000 times better than filtering. However you do need that bit of filtering [ the 2,200's & choke ] before the regulator chip or it will fail. As I said it may not work for you but I'm tipping it will. It is absolutely fantastic in mine. Should anyone need to sight the circuit drawing I drew up a rough sketch that I sent to Graham in Queensland and I can scan and send it to you if you contact me by E'mail. Hope this helps.

    --> AeroElectric-List message posted by: "Richard E. Tasker" <retasker@optonline.net> Point taken. I am sorry. I had assumed that the file was already on your site and that you were just pointing it out to the requester, assuming that you would have originally saved it in a relatively universal format when you put it there in the first place. I should have known that you would have gone out of your way to find one and put it there when he asked for it - I don't know how you find the time to do all you do. Regarding the others who answered/chastised me, I have not upgraded beyond 98 for the simple reason that the newer versions do not do anything more that I need. In fact, 98 doesn't do anything more than the original LT version that I need. The only reason I have that version is because that is what was available when I bought it. And, yes, I can now read the file just fine. Thank You, Dick Tasker Robert L. Nuckolls, III wrote: >--> AeroElectric-List message posted by: "Robert L.
