In case you're on the lookout for replacement gas springs for your Series 5
doors (can't vouch for these fitting another model), I just got some at
_www.guden.com_ (http://www.guden.com) that work great and they're only $9.28
each. The model no. is GGS44-030-K. They have a really nice damper action at
the end of the upstroke. Just unlatch the door, push it out, and let go.

Men,
I have a generic Weight & Balance form I have used for years on everything
from single place to 6 place aircraft. Current version is for up to 4 seats.
It
may be used as a worksheet, or just fore and aft limits already worked out,
i.e., how much you can carry with you and full fuel, low fuel, etc., and
remain
within limits.
Glad to e-mail it to anyone who desires it.

Thanks for the info......I got a gas strut from Pep Boys for only $25 bucks
and it's so stiff I'm afraid it's going to bust off my door hinges. Series
IV 1050

| Subject: | VXA 700 Hand Held |
--> Kitfox-List message posted by: "Jimmie Blackwell" <jablackwell@ev1.net>
About a year ago I bought a VXA 700 from Vertex Standard. Never used it until
a few weeks ago and discovered that the aircraft band transmit audio was unreadable.
Sent it back to the factory for repair and got it back to today.
Same problem, no one can understand when I transmit.
Wondering if anyone else has had this problem with the VXA 700.
Thanks
Jimmie

Just wondering, is that using the supplied rubber ducky antenna or aircraft
antenna?

Jimmie
Are you using it with an external microphone or the internal
mic that is imbedded in the unit?? If external then perhaps
your wiring is not correct. If internal, then try speaking
into the mic at different distances i.e. try close up ---
lips one inch away then lengthen to about five inches
away --- does that make a difference. I have used the marine
Vertex Standard hand helds and they always worked fine using
the internal mic.

| Subject: | 912 Choke Sticking ?? |
--> Kitfox-List message posted by: "Randy Daughenbaugh" <rjdaugh@rapidnet.com>
When ever my Fox sits for a week or two (which has been happening way too
often lately) the choke sticks. Once you break it loose it is fine, but I
nearly tear the panel off tugging on it to break it loose. I thought for a
long time that it was in the cables or cable housing some place, but this
last time I checked all the cable and it was fine, but it took pliers to
actually turn the choke arm on the carb.
As I understand it, the choke is just a valve that opens up another path way
for gas to get to the engine. This seems to lead to the conclusion that the
valve is sticking. (?)
Anybody else experience this with the Bing 64?
Randy - Series 5/7, 912S

I have tried using the internal mike and with my headset and adapter that
came with the VXA700. Same result. It sounds to me like the unit is off
frequency.
I have several other Yeasu units for my Ham Radio hobby and have always been
pleased. My understanding is that Vertex Standard and Yeasu are the same
company.
Also I just found several Web sites that are complaining about the
AM/aircraft transmit audio on the VXA 700
