That's good news...
I won't leave the plastic exposed, but I'll shoot it with some 3M Sticky
Spray, lay down some 1/8" foam, then have it wrapped with leather or
something similar.
It could make a simple and easy form for some nice detail work.

| Subject: | Transponder antenna location |
I'm in the process of installing doublers for all of my antennas attached to
the fuselage bottom.
I understand that the transponder antenna coax run should be 3'to 8.8'. I
know that some have mounted the transponder antenna in the center tunnel
near the firewall. Others appear to have located it under the rear seat or
baggage area. Since this appears to require a coax run of longer than
8.8', I'm curious to what issues (or lack thereof) folks have experienced
when they located their transponder antennas in these areas? Is 8.8' really
a hard limited from Garmin?
Thanks,
Bob

Guys-
We lost an RV6 and two souls a few months back in Cottonwood, AZ. Below is
the RV8 Paul-was building. I don't know any of these people but become sa

-
Help find a good home for this aircraft. If I can assist with inspections o

This RV8 was being built by a friend of my brother Ron in Cottonwood, Az.
- Ron's friend, Paul Haynie, was a long time commercial pilot and CFII wh

It is an RV8 tail dragger.- I have inspected this plane and the workmansh

It needs an engine, prop, instruments, interior, and someone who appreciate

would buy it to finish and show.

Wire crimpers for ring terminals, fast-ons, and the like can be bought from several
sources. The important thing is to make sure they are the ratcheting type.
The crimper does not release until it gets a full squeeze. These crimpers
usually have three different dies on them: red, blue and yellow. This corresponds
to the color code on the terminals (wire sizes). Get the best terminals
you can (AMP are good) and don't go cheap on the tool.
Connector pins work differently and depend on the type. The advice to check with
Stein is a good one.

Bob,
I don't see the minimum coaxial cable length in the installation manual
(Garmin 327). The maximum 8.8' is for RG 400. On my 9A I have the TED
antenna mounted right besides right gear mount and worked well. I keep
it three feet away from my main COM antenna. There is no interference at
all. On my 10 I will try to run all my antenna cables as short as possible.

I am not sure if they are the same outfit. I was told they have four

Chris,
Many years ago I watched a shuttle launch from Jetty Park, about a mile
south of the launch pad. It was truly awesome. Even at that distance the
sound was amazing, and the image was spectacular. I hope you can make it.
Go early because I remember there was a pretty big crowd.

Check their lineage ; I believe they are the former Kinzie Industries or at
least have some of the same people. My aircraft was delivered to them
several months prior to my return to the US to fly the aircraft on vacation.
My maintenance facility at RVS was able to retrieve the aircraft for me just
in time for my arrival. The instrument plastic panels had not been cut or
trimmed (left for me to pay someone else to do it) and later when the heat
ducts were examined they were found with plastic shavings left over from the
trimming.

Thanks for the heads-up David. I will keep an eye on it and hope for

I can't help it. I am a sick man.
Seriously though, the radiation issue was discussed some time ago on this list.
Not an issue

8.8' of RG400, 12.5' of RG304, 17' of RG393.
Some may know that I've had the 'leans' with my GRT EFIS. Initialises
perfectly on the ground with no anomalous heading, but tilts 3-4deg once
airborne. I have my XPDR antenna in the tunnel beneath the fwd baggage
area, with the magnetometer in the 'stock' location on a shelf above and
aft of the battery. Since the XPDR only transmits once airborne ('SBY'
on the ground and automatically enters 'ALT' mode), and the AHRS only
leans in flight, me thinks that perhaps the XPDR antenna is too close to
the magnetometer and may be interfering when responding to a ping . . .
.
Will turn the XPDR off next flight and see what happens.
Cheers,
Ron
