    Subject: A List Contribution - It's Your Personal Squelch Button...
    There is an automatic "squelch button" of sorts for the Fund Raiser messages. Here's how it works... As soon as a List member makes a Contribution through the Matronics Fund Raiser web site, their email address is automatically added to this year's Contributor List and they instantly cease to receive further Fund Raiser messages for the rest of the month! Its just that simple! :-) I really do appreciate each and every one of your individual Contributions to support the Lists. It is your support that enables me to upgrade the hardware and software that are required to run a List Site such as this one. It also goes to pay for the commercial-grade Internet connection and to pay the huge electric bill to keep the computer gear running and the air conditioner powered on. I run all of the Matronics Email List and Forums sites here locally which allows me to control and monitor every aspect of the system for the utmost in reliably and performance. Your personal Contribution matters because, when combined with other Listers such as yourself, it pays the bills to keep this site up and running. I accept exactly ZERO advertising dollars for the Matronics Lists sites. I can't stand the pop-up ads and all other commercials that are so prevalent on the Internet these days and I particularly don't want to have it on my Email List sites. If you appreciate the ad-free, grass-roots, down-home feel of the Matronics Email Lists, please make a Contribution to keep it that way!! http://www.matronics.com/contribution or, you can send a personal check to the following address: Matronics / Matt Dralle 581 Jeannie Way Livermore, CA 94550 Thank you!

For example, if someone replies to one of the messages, when using the List Browse feature, or when accessing List message via the Forum. The system keys on the given email address and since most of these are anonymous public access methods, there is no simple way to filter them.]

    Subject: Matronics Email Disruption Fixed...
    Dear Listers, Starting around midnight this morning 11/11/13, the Matronics Barracuda spam filter that receives all incoming email from the Internet, developed a problem and started rejecting all incoming email. I just got off the phone with the Barracuda technical support and we have resolved the issue as of 10:15am PST. If you have posted to any of the Lists during this time, you will need to resend your email to the respective List. My apologies for the disruption! Matt Dralle Matronics Email List and Forum Administrator

    I note that the 18 gal tank will put 120 lbs in the baggage area. When I built my 10, Vans recommended a max of 150 lbs in the baggage area. But I see that current kits have a recommended limit of 100 lbs. Does anyone know why the change was made? Does the recommendation apply to all aircraft or only newer ones (was there a structural change?)? -------- Bob Turner RV-10 QB Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=412833#412833

    I think it may have always been 100. I know I've seen that for many years and was always curious as to why.

    Subject: Re: Extra fuel tank
    When you do the weight and balance it pulls everything aft. forget trying to put an adult back there with the fuel loaded up, however, that will take you out of C/G. I can tell you that the tail section can tolerate 170lbs. I tested it when I did and do my annuals, so I doubt it's a structural issue with the baggage area. -----Original Message----- From: Bob Turner Sent: Monday, November 11, 2013 10:39 AM Subject: RV10-List: Re: Extra fuel tank I note that the 18 gal tank will put 120 lbs in the baggage area.
