| Subject: | XM Antenna through Fiberglass? |
I have had success mounting the GPS antenna under the fiberglass cowl,
so I thought I'd try it with my XM antenna. It seems to work, but not
as well. The weather seems to take longer to download and the music is
spotty at times. I don't know if it is because I have it close to the
baffles and it may be blocking reception during climbs in certain
directions, or if it is because of the fiberglass.
Has anyone had success mounting theirs under fiberglass?? Does anyone
know if it should work?
Thanks

Hi Listers,
I am planning to move to Texas from Oregon in mid to late October. My pl

DAR if I could get a ferry permit to move it to Texas. Since it crosses
several teritorries, he was not certain. Has anybody ever done this?
I definately want to have enough time on the plane to be comfortable and

Dan:
There are different CLASSes of Chem Film. They are determined by color and
time. You can either use a low concentration say 1 oz for 10 Gal and let tit
sit for a long time or double it for a shorter time. One other very important
factor is TEMPERATURE. The solution is mixed hot and used warm. See the
instructions for temps. Also, DD (Distilled & De-Ionizied) water is best but not
very practical. Filter the water if you can, Minerals (Iron, Salt and
Chlorine) affect the quality of the film.
And...for some crazy reason SUNLIGHT weakens the solution so keep it covered.
A dark plastic tarp works.

Barry,
Try again. One POUND of Alodine 1201 or Iridite 14-2 will make 10 to 13 gallons
of liquid. I really like making it from the powder, as you can control the
strength of the solution. The powder also costs less than $2 per gallon, versus
$25 per gallon for the liquid version.

Dan & Listers,
Just an FYI about mixing Alodine or Iridite. Mixing it towards the weak end of
the recommended scale, will reduce the solution's storage life, greatly slow
the chemical reaction time, plus leave you with more solution to dispose of. 1.5
to 2.25 ounces per gallon works well and will give a storage life (once converted
to liquid) of about 2 years.
Remember that these chemicals are photo chemically reactive. Don't use them outside
in the sun light, or store them exposed to light. That will ruin the chemicals.
Use them in the shade or in the garage with all the doors and windows
open.

Thanks for the tips, again, Barry.
I had talked with Henkel before using alodine. They had mentioned it could be recycled.
What I found was that as I reused the solution, it took a longer dwell
time to get the same results. So I ended up adding straight alodine to the recycled
solution. So I'd like to be prepared to use solutions on the stronger
side to speed up the process, especially since the baths will be tap water cold.
I supposed I could use hot water to start with, but it would cool quite a bit
anyway before finishing my parts for the day.

Barry,
One of my friends mixed up a batch of Iridite 14-2 (1 pound to 10 gallons). He
used it in his driveway, outside during a 90 degree summer day in S Florida.
All his parts turned out great that day. However, the next day, the solution was
worthless. Use this stuff in the shade only.

Dan,
I live in SE Florida (corrosion capital of the world). I checked with Henkel Corp
(makers of Alodine) My nearest distributer was in the Atlanta, Georgia area.
I then checked with MacDirmid Corp. They have a distributer about 25 miles
from me.
Allied Plating Supply of Hialeah, (north of Miami). I'll send you more detailed
info on them when I get home, later today.

I used to get ASF calls until I signed up for the "do-not-call" list. Now I
just get the ASF mailings. Which is fine with me since I send them a check
they don't have to pay any money to whatever company they use for phone
solicitation, and the credit card company doesn't take a cut of the action.
The ASF is a tremendous organization and their online "courses" are
fantastic and deserve my support. Plus I like the free calendar and mailing
labels they send me.

They have one up there now on "runway safety." Which would've come in handy
this week for at least one air crew.

Need to keep your alodine solution warm? Use an aquarium heater. All
the wetted component are plastic or glass. Buy a 1000w unit and it
should keep your solution warm and with no shock hazard.

Hi Gary,
There's a high level of respect for your knowledge
and opinions in the RV community. I wanted to get your
thoughts on a few questions I've been pondering. I
hope you don't mind...?
I've read a few negative comments regarding steel
cylinders being used with high compression pistons.
Can you comment on this subject?
You are using 10 to 1 pistons, any issues with the
engine running smooth? Did your cylinders come flow
matched?

This is off topic but something that I think pilots can appreciate.
I am working on a web site that will require the entry of latitude
longitude coordinates. As you probably know there area lot of
different ways to format latitude and longitude. I have done my best to
make my code work no mater what format you use. If you have some time
and would like to try it, I want to know if anyone can break it. If you
do, please send me the data you used to break it, so I can figure out
why it broke and fix it. Below is the URL for the test. The web site
it is currently on is not the web site it is for, that is just where I
am doing the testing until I get a server set up for the new site.

Dan
This past April I discovered a Canadian company who sells Powdered
Alodine in 4oz tubes. This will make 2 to 2.5 gallons of liquid
Alodine. Here is a web link to their Canadian & American distributors.

PS You might ask on the RV List if anyone local to you has some of
the powder they would sell. Or ask if a few guys would be willing to
split a 10 pound batch. That's how we do it down here.

I got my iridite powder from Eldorado Chemical...the chemical cost itself
for a can was reasonable but the hazmat shipping charge is what makes it
expensive. If you call them they will have a rep in your area sell it to
you.

Howdy y'all-
I recently saw an ad or website link that showed a really nice faceplate for
the standard Grand Rapids EIS engine monitor that installed on the front of it
and made it the same width as a standard avionics stack. Now I can't find
the source- anyone point me to it?
TIA- Mark
