Eric,
> Once we see how Wade's RCA-to-USB converter and EFIS handle being switched between
camera feeds
FYI - I should be done with the final checks on my panel/EFIS by the end of this
week, and ready to start testing video NLT end of next week.
Cheers,
Wade

I hope all the geek chatter hasn't created a sense of urgency! There's no rush;
take your time... ;-}

P.S. Alec and I have begun direct email comms to avoid spamming the List with
endless back-and-forth about PCB layout and PIC programming. I promise no functional
or interface changes without consultation here.

Bob said: Hmmmm . . . Paul and I are putting the final
touches on the OBAM aircraft friendly data
logger I mentioned a few days ago. Maybe
you could be the 'beta test' project.
I was thinking maybe a four channel "Hobo". Btw,: I get the digest version
of the forum so I can not look at attachments... Nonetheless, I'm
available to alpha or beta a new logger. I hadn't been following that
thread so I'll have to go back and read the background. Consider me an
experienced tester as I've done lots of development and have a lab etc..

No worries. I wanted to fire up the EFIS and check it out anyway. :)

I am hooking up my Grand Rapids Technology ADS-B hardware and two of
the connections are coax. I asked and they said either RG58 or RG400
works.
1. Should I use one or the other for some reason?
2. I can't thread a completed coax where it goes with connectors so I
need to fasten or crimp them on afterwards. Anyone using a tool
available at Lowe's or HD or Fry's or ...?
3. I went to Lowe's and didn't see any RG58 wire or connectors. I saw
they had RG59 whatever that is. I did see RG58 A/U at Aircraft Spruce.
Hints appreciated. Thank you. JBB

Crimp tool:
http://www.steinair.com/product/ratcheting-crimper-frame-only/ and
http://www.steinair.com/product/bnc-crimp-die-only/
Do not try to use TV or automotive crimpers.
If your run is about 6 ft or less, you can use RG58 of the stranded wire
center conductor variety. I suggest RG-400 for your transponder/ADS-B
Out transmitter. RG-58 will do the job for the ADS-B In receiver, as
well as for your com radio(s).
RG-58 and RG-400 are 50 ohm impedance, which you want. RG-59 is 75 ohm
impedance and usually solid core center conductor.

RG59 is 75 Ohm coax, used in video/tv applications. RG400 is higher spec
50 ohm coax. RG58 is the more common. For short runs, RG58 is normally
adequate.
