    Subject: gps antenna under glassfibre?
    In my Europa build, until now Ive been planning to provide my Trig TT21 transponder with a GPS position signal from my Garrecht TRX-2000 traffic monitor which has a built-in GPS receiver. However, with the CAA offering rebates on conspicuity equipment purchases, I am considering a Trig TN72 with a TA50 antenna. This would allow the TT21 to show a SIL of 1 (rather than 0 with the TRX-2000) and thus be more visible to other traffic. However, with a lot of my installation already done (or at least frozen) I am not sure where I can put the TA50 antenna. On top of the instrument module I have 3 GPS antennas already (for Garmin GPSmap 295, TRX-2000 & Dynon D2 - see http://www.rowlandcarson.org.uk/aviation/europa_435/im_gps_antennae.php). I have separated those antennae by the 6 inches that I found as a recommendation on a Garmin marine website. I am wondering if it would be OK to put the TA50 inside the roof where I have plenty of space, and whether that would reduce the GPS signal too much. The Europa fuselage is made from inner and outer layers (apparently mostly double) of pre-preg with a thin layer of brown foam between. Any advice appreciated, or suggestions for a better place to ask this question. in friendship Rowland | Rowland Carson ... that's Rowland with a 'w' ... | <rowlandcarson@gmail.com> http://www.rowlandcarson.org.uk | Skype, Twitter: rowland_carson Facebook: Rowland Carson

    Either the instrument panel or the roof should work OK. I would put the new antenna on the instrument panel panel to make installation easier. 6 inches apart is perfect, but 4 inches apart is good enough. Jim Weir recommends RG-174 cable. -------- Joe Gores Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=499288#499288

    I have never seen conductive grease. Putting grease on connectors will not hurt much except for adding a gram of weight and being a little messy. A good connection will force the grease out, allowing metal to metal contact. The grease that is forced out will resist water and high humidity air from getting in. -------- Joe Gores Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=499293#499293

    There must be a use for that stuff, but I wouldn't want to risk it in an a/c. Dielectric grease will keep oxygen/water out of connectors without bridging between the terminals.

    I use dielectric grease in my auto and motorcycle connectors. It works grea t for corrosion protection and no danger of shorting one circuit to another. I only posted the link because someone said they had never seen a conductive grease. There are greases that conduct electricity and that conduct heat. A nd probably some that do both.

    You wouldn't have to ensure. Diaelectric grease is an insulator.=C2- At R F frequencies, it has an impedance of 75 degrees.=C2- That's why they use it in RF connectors - to extend the 75 Ohms through like the cable's diele ctric.=C2- Here is a paragraph out of Wiki for "diaelectric grease." As a sealant around electrical contacts[edit] Silicone greases are electrically=C2-insulating=C2-and are often applie d to=C2-electrical connectors, particularly those containing rubber gaske ts, as a means of sealing and protecting the connector. In this context the y are often referred to as=C2-dielectric=C2-grease.[8][9] A common use of this type is in the high-voltage connection associated with gasoline-engine spark plugs, where grease is applied to the rubber boot of the plug wire to help it slide onto the ceramic insulator of the plug, to seal the rubber boot, and to prevent the rubber's adhesion to the ceramic. Such greases are formulated to withstand the high temperature generally ass ociated with the areas in which spark plugs are located, and can be applied to contacts as well (because the contact pressure is sufficient to penetra te the grease film). Doing so on such high-pressure contact surfaces betwee n different metals has the further advantage of sealing the contact area ag ainst electrolytes that might cause rapid deterioration of the metals by=C2 -galvanic corrosion.[10] Silicone grease can decompose to form an insulating layer at or next to swi tch contacts that experience=C2-arcing, and contamination can cause the c ontacts to prematurely fail.

In general, I believe any metal can be corrosion free if coated with dielectric grease, since it stops penetration of humidity and water if applied correctly. What do you think of dielectric grease for this application? Simon Never seen it done in aircraft. By definition. a properly assembled, gas-tight joint would have no voids at-risk for contamination. Further, any grease (a viscous liquid) in the joint would be squeezed out as the joint was made up. Most of the dielectric greases I've encountered are a silicon based chemistry . . . the stuff 'migrates'. Put a little dab onto a flat surface and set it aside for a couple months . . . it will become much larger in diameter with time. I suspect quality is fundamental to the 'water displacement' claim for such products. Certainly useful if there are gaps that water can enter . . . like ignition components on your car that should have been replaced some time ago. I used to wash down my car engines with high pressure, soap water with some frequency. If it was reluctant to start up and drive out of the car wash, STUFF GOT REPLACED. Hawker/Beech management expressed an interest in several 'joint enhancement' nostrums. I was tasked with researching this product. https://tinyurl.com/y6m9xsov One of several avenues of inquiry I made was to application engineers at TycoAmp, Molex and several others. Paraphrasing their responses, they generally ran along this line: "Say what?!?! . . . you make us jump through the myriad of hoops proposed by DO-160, Mil- Std-460/461, MIL-STD-810, ad nauseam and you have the temerity to ask if painting our products with this 'stuff' would enhance their performance? The general consensus was: "If you have a NEW requirement, then articulate it in your next purchase order and we'll do our best to meet that requirement. But be forewarned, any expenses incurred by us to meet this NEW requirement will be passed along in the request for quotation." So this begs the questions: (a) Are there any perceived inadequacies in the demonstrated service life of a component? (b) Are those inadequacies determined to be . . . (1) the byproduct of poor design or manufacturing? (2) inattention to installation details? (c) Why was the potential for those inadequacies not addressed in the initial procurement specification for the product? The fact that things like Stabilant 22 exist suggests one of two conditions: (a) The product's design goals were deficient. (b) The product has been in service longer than the expected design goals. The short answer is: Be wary of any suggestion that some goop, goo or magic elixir will enhance the performance of ANY product. I can confidently assert that 99% of those claims are not founded in demonstrable practice/physics. The remaining 1% are represented by products/ companies that are out of business. After months of not terribly intense investigation the short answer was: The techniques defined by our process specifications have a demonstrated track record. Further, there are no DEFICIENCIES for established design goals addressed by legacy process/procurement specifications. As a minor aside: Any suggestion that installation techs be asked to carry a bottle of Stabilant 22 in their toolbox was greeted with a stare that could be lethal. So . . . do it right the first time and you won't have to do it over in the future. This isn't rocket science. It's a shop-practice refined and defined by 100 years of experience in the field. Bob . . .
