I had mine chromed - cost $150 plus sales tax for $159. Took 4 weeks but they look
great. As far as the inside of the steps, I took a piece of large wood dowel
used for closet hangers and stapled some coarse sandpaper to it with enough
wraps to make it snug. Let it overlap a little to get the bottom of the tube.
Got it to shine, cleaned with acetone, masking tape over the holes, then enough
Zinc Oxide to paint a small house. The chrome guy had removed all the factory
primer and the outside of the unchromed shaft was pretty ugly with tape marks
and stuff. Lots of sandpaper and scotchbrite later I got them looking like
the chromed part. Will either prime them or coat with Boeshield T-9. Still not
sure what to do about the AN3 bolt wobbling over time.

Quick question for those who have used ADS-B. It uses a transponder/DME type antenna.
Is the existing transponder antenna all you need or does it require a separate
dedicated antenna?

It would be a totally different antenna for ADS-B. ADS-B
also requires GPS, which you may or may not get from a GPS
that you're already using the plane, so it may in some cases
require another separate GPS antenna.
In the case of NavWorx, they have an all-in-one unit that
has it's own GPS and ADS-B antenna, and then they'll also
have a model that you can feed an external GPS signal to,
and install another external ADS-B antenna on your plane.
The all-in-one is a portable, the other is a permanent mount.

I made my side panels removable on both sides. Replaced pop rivets with
nutplates. That allowed access on the right for electrical runs and on
the left for my aux tank plumbing. With the side panels removed there is
a slot in the floors exposed thru which I can access the step bolts, and
use a modified wrench to reach the bottom of the step tube , to access
the nuts.

Avweb had a podcast on ADS-B this past Monday:
http://www.avweb.com/podcast/files/2008-10-20_JensHennig-GAMA-ADS-B.mp3
One of the requirements of ADS-B is a TSO'd 146a WAAS GPS for position reporting.
They are trying to reduce this requirement to just as S/A off GPS.
I would love to see an install manual for the ADS600 however. The NavWorx devices
seems to be a "listen only" device and not a true ADS-B which is supposed
to also Broadcast the aircraft current position--but still way cool.

| Subject: | scat tube flange-reduction from 2" to 1" |
Hey Tom -
I needed to reduce the heater tube diameter for my tunnel and I
discovered that just reducing it from 2" to 1.5" gained me the necessary
clearance for my application. If you discover that in fact 1.5" would
be sufficient, take a look here:
http://www.siliconeintakes.com/
They have a pretty wide working temp range, and should work nicely for
this application. For me, I got the 2" to 1.5" reducer, and used a
piece of scrap tubing from the push pull controls (happily exactly 1.5"
diameter) to connect the reducer. I also got one to re-largify back to
2" for the connection to the outlet at the pax feet. the 1.5" diameter
tubing fits nicely between the spar and the tunnel cover. the only
thing is that you should angle the aluminum T connector at the pax vent
to point a bit forward, as the reducer pointed straight up would contact
the tunnel cover. I also trimmed the reducer a bit to shorten it.

Subject: RV10-List: scat tube flange-reduction from 2" to 1"
Does anyone have a source or suggestion for a reduction flange so I can
reduce the size of heater hose tubing running in the tunnel?
I'd like to reduce to 1" from standard 2", especially for rear passenger
seating.
Thanks,

Decided to Boeshield T-9 the step shafts. Access through the lightening holes in
the future for additional inspection/anticorrosion. Found the perfect solution
for step wobble - an AN173-20 bolt. It's a "close tolerance" bolt that won't
fit an AN3 hole without a little persuasion. I just spun a bit in my fingers
until the AN173 decided to go through. Absolutely NO movement.

Smart move. You will thank yourself years from now for putting in the extra effort.

John,
For the GDL-90, you can use the same antenna as your transponder, the GDL-90 has
options to deconflict with the transponder signal. However, GDL requires two
antenna's, one on the top and bottom for full spherical coverage, so you'll
still need to add one more. It also requires a separate gps antenna.
