:-)
If you received this particular Matronics List Email message, its because you haven't
yet made a Contribution to support your Lists! This is the first PBS-like
funds drive message under the new distribution system. The new system selectively
sends out the Contribution messages ONLY to those that forgot to whip
out the 'ol credit card this year to support the continued operation and upgrade
of the Matronics Email Lists! Don't you wish PBS worked that way? :-)
You heard that right. Once you make your Contribution, these support requests
messages during November will suddenly stop coming to your personal email inbox!
Pardon me if I seem kind of excited about the new feature. I've wanted to
implement something like this for a number of years now, but it was always such
a daunting task to modify the back-end List processing code, that I just kept
putting it off. Finally this year, I just decided to bite the bullet and put
the code-pounding time it to make it work. A few days later, bam! A working
system!
Anyway, I'll stop gushing now. 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
like this. It also goes to pay for the Commercial-Grade Internet connection
and to pay the rather huge electric bill to keep the computer gear running
and the air conditioner powered up.
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 commercialism that is so prevalent on the Internet
these days and I particularly don't want to have it on my Email List site.
I'm pretty sure you don't either.
If you appreciate the ad-free, grass-roots, down-home feel of the Matronics Email
Lists, please make a Contribution today to keep it that way!!

Dear Listers,
A number of Listers emailed and indicated that, even though they had made a Contribution
this year, they still received the Contribution message yesterday.
I looked into it and I found a slight anomaly (ok, bug) in the new code specifically
as it related to Listers that had made their Contribution through PayPal
AND have a DIFFERENT email address for their PayPal account and for their Matronics
List subscription.
If your PayPal account email address is DIFFERENT than the email address you are
subscribed to the Matronics List(s) as, then my new code module couldn't tell
that you had made a Contribution, since it was using the PayPal email address
instead of the List email.
I've fixed this issue for any new PayPal Contributions, but I don't have any easy
way of resolving this for any of the previous Contribtuions. Again, this is
ONLY an issue if your PayPal and Matronics List email addresses ARE NOT the
same. Otherwise, everything works great.
If you made a PayPal Contribution before 11/09/06 AND your email addresses don't
match, please drop me an email at " info@matronics.com " (do not reply to this
message!) and give me your Name, and both Email Addresses and I will manually
update the records so that things will work as advertised.
Sorry for the hassle! New code; new bugs... :-)

Thank you!

Larry;
I had the same problem as you describe.
RV6-A Tires wear unevenly so I rotated the tires at condition
inspection time, squeal persisted. Put new tires on airplane and squeal
went away. Of course I also did many of the things Jerry mentioned when
I changed tires, i.e. cleaned rotors, repacked bearings etc. Did not
use squeal stop.

Larry,
I doused my brake rotor with liberal amounts of laquer thinner, while
scrubbing same with sandpaper and brush. Also cleaned pads. I also put
some automotive "squeal stop" on backs of pads. Squealing ceased, so one
or more of these cures seemed to work.

Dick,=0AA couple years back I swapped tires (Van's) and the noise went away
for a while. I also have done the cleaning and re-surfacing of the pads/ro
tors which also helps for a while. Now I have new Goodyear Tires (at annual
in Sept) and lo and behold it is back. I am beginning to think tire pressu
re enters into the equation. I am running about 34# now and have noise. I a
m going to lower it to say 28# and see it that changes the problem as step
one. Have you heard about the brake lines on the gear legs vibrating and t
hus noise? Also, I did change pads on the offending gear (at tire change).
Which makes me suspect I may have glazed them etc. I'll give them a good
"resurfacing" also as step two.=0ALarry=0A =0A"LIMA TANGO SENDS" =0A=0A=0A
