    Subject: Who is "Matt Dralle" & What Are "The Lists"? [Please Read]
    Dear Listers, Who is Matt Dralle and what exactly are these Lists? Well, I've been working in the information technology industry for over 20 years primarily in computer networking design and implementation. I have also done extensive work in web development and CGI design during this period. I started the Matronics Email Lists back in 1990 with about 30 fellow RV builders from around the world. Since that time, I have added 63 other kinds of aircraft related Lists to the line up and numerous other List related services such as the Forums, Wiki, Archives and Search Engine just to name a few. For flexibility and reliability, I have chosen to run all of my own servers here locally. Other List-related systems include a 1 Gigabit, fully switched network infrastructure, a commercial-grade Netscreen firewall, a Barracuda spam filter, a local T1 Internet router, and a commercial-grade business T1 Internet connection with full static addressing. The computer servers found here include a brand new, quad-processor Xeon Linux server for List web services, a dual-processor Xeon Linux system dedicated to the email processing List functions, and another P4 Linux system serving as a remote storage disk farm for the archives, databases, and for an on-line hard drive-based backup system with 3.2 Terra Bytes of storage, soon to be upgraded to over 6 Terra Bytes! This entire system is protected by three large, commercial-grade uninterrupted power supply (UPS) systems that assure the Lists are available even during a local power outage! Speaking of power, imagine how much electricity it takes to run all of these systems. One month this Summer, I had a staggering $1368 bill for electricity alone! I recently upgraded all of the computer racking infrastructure including new power feeds and dedicated air conditioning for the room that serves as the Computer Center for the Matronics Email Lists. This year I added another rack to house the new MONSTER quad-processor web system that didn't quite fit into the first rack! Here's a composite photo of the List Computer Center before the addition of the second rack: http://www.matronics.com/MattDralle-ListComputerCenter.jpg As you can see, I take running these Lists very seriously and I am dedicated to providing an always-on, 24x7x365 experience for each and every Lister. But building and running this system isn't cheap. As I've stated before, I don't support any of these systems with commercial advertising on the Lists. It is supported 100% through List member Contributions! That means you... and you... and YOU! To that end, I hold a List Fund Raiser each November and ask that members make a small Contribution to support the continued operation and upgrade of this ever-expanding system. Its solely YOUR Contributions that keeps it running! Please make a Contribution today to support these Lists! http://www.matronics.com/contribution Or, by dropping a personal check in the mail to: Matronics / Matt Dralle PO Box 347 Livermore CA 94551-0347 USA (Please include your email address on the check!) Thank you! Matt Dralle Matronics Email List Administrator

    Subject: Re: transponder antenna placement
    My comm and xpdr antennas in my RV6 are roughly 30" apart, have no problem, are located under the seat area, etc. The avionics are basic King 76 and 97 series. Keep in mind that the radiation patterns of antennas so located are mostly directed away from the aircraft (and you) by the aircraft skin, the latter which provides an RF ground plane. Metal between you and any RF emission is better. Further away is also better, as the strength of the RF field decreases with the square of the distance. The antennas' distance apart recommendation goes mostly to RF interference and to a lesser extent the possibility of detuning one antenna by virtue of its proximity to the other. Rather than get into all the theory and math behind the recommendations, BEST to just follow the recommendations and move on (or take up ham radio like me). The other issue that arises, besides inter station interference, is the possibility of pumping too much RF into a nearby receiver front end of a 2nd radio/xpdr, while transmitting on 1st. This can damage the receiver, but mostly only an issue with similar avionics, i.e. xpdr vs xpdr, comm vs comm, etc.. Also, Bob Nuckolls' points re effective radiated power, pulsed, duration, etc. are well taken (know he'll sleep easier now). Radar is, as John C noted, a different story, while pulsed, is in MEGAwatts, and also at very harmful frequencies, but it is highly directive, AWAY from aircraft. Softer body tissue is most vulnerable to RF exposure. Last, when considering antenna placement location, SIMPLY consider the most often direction of the target station from the aircraft, and seek the best, practical, unobstructed, line of sight antenna location, thereby avoiding nulls. Nav antennas in wing tips, okay if you must, but one in each wing tip then, would be better, re nulls. Ready to put out the flames here.......as always. Link McGarity #40622 do not archive

    Chris, For whatever it's worth I put the transponder in the tunnel as far forward as I could right up next to the firewall and I put the Ryan on the pilots side next to the tunnel forward of the landing gear, so as not to be obstructed. I didn't want another antenna to close to the Ryan if possible. Wayne Edgerton #40336

    Subject: Flowscan bushing
    I reamed the Flowscan to accept a standard aluminum bushing to allow for a AN3 bolt, and removed enough material to penetrate the sender's wall, and cause it to leak. ( these are VERY thin walls) After spending another $250 to replace the sender, I then turned down a couple more bushings on the lathe, so they would fit the existing holes in the Flowscan, without removing any material from the Flowscan. Anyone need a leaky Flowscan, Cheap? Chris Hukill buildus interuptus during major home remodel (I though airplane parts were expensive!)

    From: "Patrick Pulis" <patrick.pulis@seagas.com.au>
    Could anyone please tell me if they have opted to use nut plates when installing the fibreglass elevator and rudder fairings in lieu of pop rivets to allow future removal with ease? If anyone out there has used nut plates, can these be glassed into place in lieu of using flush rivets to attach the nut plates to the fibreglass fairings. Likewise has anyone attached nut plates to the wing tip fairings using glass in lieu of rivets? Regards > PATRICK PULIS Adelaide, South Australia RV-10 #40299 DO NOT ARCHIVE

    Attachment of Fibreglass Empennage Fairings Using Nut platesI just did mine using nutplates. I used soft rivets to set the nutplates with. The thing to be careful of is having the nutplates perpendicular to the edge...or the screws will be crooked. Two ways to do this that I know of: Glass in a plate of aluminum at the correct angle (you could have the nutplates set in the aluminum prior to glassing - but I wouldn't) Bend the ears of the nutplate so they can go in fulsh to the surface and the threads end up at the correct angle.

    Subject: Stupid questions
    Okay, I've been away from power planes too long. What is a marker beacon antenna for? Don't say a marker beacon. Is it for IFR equipment. Do strobes have to be located on the wing tips.? I thought that when I used to fly power they were also found on the belly. Am I imagining this. If on the belly is okay, why not just put in one light rather than two on the wing tips. Thanks,, John Gonzalez, Do Not Archive my ignorance in this matter. Finished Drilling teeth for the day.

    Subject: Re: Stupid questions
    The marker beacon is IFR equipment that has going out of common use for some time. The beacons themselves are being decommissioned and GPS usage has replaced much of their use in the cockpit. I think they are only required on Cat II and III approaches (you and I won't be doing any of those in the '10) However, any audio panel you install will probably have marker beacon lights (they are pretty). It just occurred to me that I have no idea where the receiver is for the marker beacon. Have you been flying gliders? I know how that feels. You won't be interested in marker beacons even if you fly IFR. You are new school by definition - only old school guys will insist on them. So, I wonder whether I'll install a marker beacon attenna?

    Subject: jacks
    Just bought two jack stands with 10" lift 3 ton hydraulic jack included. We will machine a new center part for the 10. Can anyone provide the distance from the tiedown ring hole on the wings to the ground with normal inflation and that same distance with a flat tire. It will assist us in determining the length of the new machined part.

    Question regarding rudder bearing blocks and the "nylon" rudder cable guides. How snug should both of these be? I can tighten the center rudder bearing block to the pont where the rudder pedals will not move, obviously too tight. Same with the rudder cable guides. How much play do we need in these? Are the aerodynamic forces on the rudder enough to overcome the situation? Will there be enough wear in to loosen the pedals and the cable? Inquiring minds want to know John Hasbrouck #40264

    From: "RV Builder (Michael Sausen)" <rvbuilder@sausen.net>
    No such thing as a stupid question, just stupid people. Wait, don't think that came out right. Anyway, the Marker Beacons (also known as Fan Markers or Fan Beacons for the radiation pattern they emit) are used to identify approach fixes under IFR flight. Usually Outer, Middle, and Inner. The old saying goes that some have attached the coat hanger to the back of the MB receiver and picked them up. I opted for a slightly better arrangement and you can see it below. Doesn't have to be anything pretty as they are fairly high power, directional, and you fly fairly close to them. <http://www.mykitlog.com/users/display_log.php?user=msausen&project=22&c ategory=624&log=6520&row=4> Michael Sausen -10 #352 Fuselage -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of John Gonzalez Sent: Tuesday, November 28, 2006 6:55 PM Subject: RV10-List: Stupid questions --> <indigoonlatigo@msn.com> Okay, I've been away from power planes too long.

    A marker beacon antenna can be nothing more than a 40" strip of copper wire glassed into the wingtip. 14 ga solid romex stripped will do a good job. So will stripped off coax wire. Rick S. 40185
