Well I'm happy to report that I put a diode in the feed to the zener on
both homebuilt OVP modules and I have not seen a nuisance OV trip since.
I have started the engine numerous times while chasing some oil leaks
and other issues so I think the problem is licked and I recommend the
mod. Thanks again Bob!
I have been searching for a used TDS-210 digital scope as recommended
below but they seem to be commanding a bit higher price than I'd like
and I notice they only have a 1K memory despite otherwise impressive
specs. At the moment I'm trying to catch sporadic extra spark events
that I suspect may be occuring in my electronic ignition. Has anybody
used one of the low cost PC laptop scopes for chasing such gremlins?
Some of the PC scopes have larger memory and are less costly than a used
tektronix. I presume that a larger memory is more useful than a fast
sample rate for ignition work. An intriguing example of one of the
pricer units is at http://www.linkinstruments.com/oscilloscope21.htm#pricing
thank you for any thoughts or recommendations

gentlemen/ladies,
Thank you for bringing back fatigue/aching backs/soaking
earpieces and bad memories with this spate of Adcock range era items.
Who said he enjoyed flying the Adcock range? That enjoyment ends almost
instantly the minute you're paid for it and it's endless.
Can I say "consolan"?

Good Morning Ferg,
You had to fly one of the loop ranges in an ice storm to really appreciate
the Adcock version!
The mnemonic was for the course identifier lights that were on each airway
beacon.
They flashed a signal in Morse code that repeated every ten seconds or so.
That Is how you could positively identify which beacon you were looking at.
There were ten different sequences and I don't remember the full mnemonic,
but what I quoted was part of it.
I kinda remember something about virgins in there too! I believe it
referred to the letter V.
I was hoping someone who remembered the whole ten identifiers would correct
me.
Happy Skies,

Ken....don't know if you've ever looked at the Govt surplus sales
site.....
http://www.govliquidation.com/list/e1825
Some of these o-scopes go for a pitance (well, $50 minimum,
anyway) but you have to be careful about the condition code. If you
live near one of the bases you can inspect/test the item before a
bid....

Hi Dale ...
Thanks for your contribution, I'll use this in the future for sure. It's
interesting how many 8A cg's fall within less than 1 inch of each other
considering all the engine/prop configurations. It's also amazing how
manipulating the location of aft battery will allow one to achieve cg
perfection. This thought makes me happy indeed.
Adjusting endurance bus loads to under 15A ... very easy to do.

The PMA6000 comes with the necessary schematic. Are you looking for the
exact pin-to-pin wiring list for the A200s connected to the PMA6000?
There should be only about 5 wires to each A200:
1. mic audio
2. headphone audio
3. PTT
4. mic ground
5. headphone audio and PTT ground

Hi Jerry,
The standard PMA-6000 wiring diagram is pretty good and shows the hooks for
both comms. It can be downloaded at their website.
Cheers,

Subject: | Re:Garmin 296 power/battery |
--> AeroElectric-List message posted by: "Dale Ensing" <densing@carolina.rr.com>
I am up grading my RV-6A from a Garmin 295 to a 296 and have a question for
you battery knowledgeable types.
I plan to hard wire the power/data cord into the airplane just as I did the
295. The 295 uses AA alkaline batteries. They are only used when the unit is
turned on without the master being on. -like loading a flight route. - and
are backup if needed.
The 296 uses a Lithium-ion re-chargeable battery which will be recharged
each time the master is on and will be used very a little as described
above. Will this constant charging and little use destroy a lithium-ion
battery? Do I need to remove the unit and cycle the batteries occasionally?
Any suggestions?

Thank you for taking time to observe a condition, hypothesize possible
root causes and conduct experiments to confirm/deny the hypothesis.
It's a rare instance that the designer-manufacturer-user loop can be
tightly closed for the purpose of chasing the bugs out of a design
or product. It's all too common that the disappointed user throws
up their hands and goes off to try something else while the supplier
is held in isolated ignorance for data that would help them evolve
the product.

The 1K of memory isn't a big restriction for capturing one screen
worth of data . . . but the task you've cited sounds like a
job for high speed data acquisition. One of my favorite tools of
yesteryear was a product by Base2 Electronics that ran off
the extended performance parallel port of a Win95 machine.
It would take 8, 12-bit samples 1000 times a second and throw
the numbers to a column delimited text file on the hard drive.
If I tied all 8 channels together, I could get 8000 samples
per second. I successfully chased a lot of gremlins out of
Beechjets with this tool. Unfortunately, the company didn't
upgrade to stay compatible with newer hardware and operating
systems and I've not found a single product that even approaches
the capability and low cost of that device ($125 with software).
I've discussed this project with my software guy (father-in-law)
and we're going to see if we can do a WinXP/USB version of this
product. In the mean time, I don't have any good recommendations
for you. If I run across something, I'll post it. Hmmm, got
an old laptop you could load Win95 on and has an EPP parallel
port? I think my Base2 Modules are laying around here somewhere.
I'm going to add a diode to the schematic for the OVPM
this weekend. Thanks for doing the legwork on this!

pretty good. 4 channel I think and as you described, work on a serial

How about doing it in such a way that it is universal. It is a small
thing but as soon as you say WinXP/USB I know that it will not run on
any of my computers (Mac, Sun, Linux/Intel).
You know, if you give it some intelligence and then put it on the
network you end up with some seriously cool remote data collection. Now
with it being on the other side of an IP connection you can write a Java
front-end that will run on anything.
