    Subject: More Great List Comments - Please Make A Contribution!
    Dear Listers, There's a little less than one week left for this year's List Fund Raiser. I thought it would a great time to share a few more of the great comments I've been receiving from Contributors regarding what the Lists mean to them. There are some particularly poignant ones in this batch and I encourage you to have a look at some of them. Don't forget that once you make your Contribution, the Contribution Squelch kicks in and you won't receive any future messages from me regarding the Fund Raiser this year! This holds true for the Realtime and Digest distributions and now also the HTML and TXT links included with the Digest! (Note that for technical reasons, if someone replies to one of my contribution messages, the Squelch will _not_ be activated, and you will still receive it. Contribution messages will also still be found on the Forums site and the List Browse). Please make your Contribution today to support these List services! Pick up a great Gift too! http://www.matronics.com/contribution Thank you! Matt Dralle Matronics Email List Administrator ============================= WLAS #2 ============================ Tackling my project without the List would be like building on a deserted island.

Once again, the information is worth more than I can ever contribute. Thank you also for the "community" that the List fosters.

    Fiser ' Germany, also sells one ' much cheaper than Becker . Mich=E8le RV8 - Finishing _____ From: owner-avionics-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-avionics-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of D. Joe Smith Sent: mercredi 4 octobre 2006 14:07 Subject: RE: Avionics-List: MicroAir Radios Bill, Thanks for the information. I am especially interested to hear that a Mode-S transponder will be available soon. The only 2-1/4 inch Mode S transponder that I know of is the Becker unit, and it would be good to see some competition in this space. Anybody Down Under working on a 406MHz ELT for experimental/general aviation? Joe D. Joe Smith Syntherica Corporation 4727 University Drive, Suite 700 Durham, NC 27707 (919) 403-3232 -----Original Message----- From: owner-avionics-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-avionics-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of W J R HAMILTON Sent: Tuesday, October 03, 2006 9:40 PM Subject: Re: Avionics-List: MicroAir Radios Folks, Slight correction, for COMs, read ICOM. Cheers, Bill Hamilton Joe, As the former Technical Director of AOPA Australia, I have considerable knowledge of their reliability, and it is good. MicroAir is also about to release a Mode S version of their transponder. I should also declare that Phil Ainsworth, President of MicroAir, is a very old friend of mine, but I don't think that taints my view. My experience of dealing with member's problems suggest that in reliability, they are second only to the small panel mount COMs, and somewhat better than several well known names, due to the relatively modern engineering and electronic design Cheers, Bill Hamilton At 01:29 AM 22/02/2006, you wrote: <jsmith@syntherica.com> Does anyone have any experience with MicroAir radios? I am thinking about using them in an open cockpit modified Skybolt. I plan on using PTT switches for the intercom function, as I am not sure VOX would work in an open cockpit environment. Does anybody have any experience with the new Xcom 760 radio that is about the same size as the MicroAir? These radios seem to be very similar in design. The Xcom appears to be more powerful and to have a number of additional features. Its intercom system is voice-activated, however, which may not work in my open cockpit environment. MicroAir makes a companion transponder as well. Does anyone have any experience with this unit? D.

    Subject: MicroAir Radios
    Sorry ' should have been clearer ' that=92s http://www.filser.de/ Two of my fellow builders have their VHFs and are very happy with them ' Filser now proposes a really cheap (price wise) mode S transponder ' small footprint ' Their market is soaring (sail planes) however there is no reason their equipment cannot be used in motor planes ' they are Becker=92s main competitor. In France Finesse max sells lots of them (http://www.finesse-max.com/avionique/transpondeur.htm). I am personally contemplating Filser for my 8 ' Finishing stage.
