Basically, what he was saying was that he had been subscribed to the RV-List back a few years ago and he used to get a lot of messages each day. Recently, he resubscribed and now only gets a few messages. "What Happened?", he wanted to know... Long story short, originally he had subscribed to the non-model specific List, the "RV-List@matronics.com". When he resubscribed, he just subscribed to the model-specific List, the "RV6-List@matronics.com". Since the model-specific Lists receive far less traffic than the main RV-List, the mystery of his reduced content was solved. He's now subscribed to the Main RV-List in addition to the RV6-List and is happily receiving a few more messages each day. I realize that many of you have made a conscious decision to only subscribe to one or more of the model-specific Lists. This conversation did make me wonder, though, just how many people have subscribed to the model-specific Lists, not knowing that a lot of the RV dialog is really on the main RV-List...? Anyway, I thought I'd post a little message today and spread the word. I did some number crunching on the RVx-Lists vs. RV-List subscriptions and found that there are 819 unique people subscribed to one or more model-specific RVx-Lists but that are NOT subscribed to the general RV-List! That's a lot of people missing out on a main flow of RV information. I've setup a little web page where you can check to see if you're currently subscribed to the RV-List and easily subscribe if you're not! http://www.matronics.com/rv-list/Am-I-Subscribed.html The RV-List is where all the action is! Subscribe today! :-) Best regards, Matt Dralle Email List Admin.

The bend radius is not close at all. I've tried a few of my own with little success. Thanks, Bob Devaney ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 07:58:10 PM PST US From: "Glenn Brasch" Subject: RV9-List: Riveting Right Elevator Spar to Skin Help. --> RV9-List message posted by: "Glenn Brasch" Any tricks or tips on how to rivet the elevator spar to the top portion of the skin in this very tight place (I know afterward the bottom skin gets pop rivets). Your help is appreciated in advance. Glenn in Tucson, Arizona -9A Empennage and slow build wings. DO NOT ARCHIVE.
