Greetings to all,
On a 601XL, where do you position 6B21-3? (the shoulder harness fitting) I can't
seem to find any hard measurements. As best as I can determine is that it
is fitted relative to the width of 6B5-6.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,

Kevin: The bracket has a given position relative to the b-3 hoop. B-3 is centered
on the bracket at 80mm and then centered on 6b5-6. Jack

Consider the most reliable of all non-flare, compression fittings: Swageloks!
They are even available in aluminum, pre-zincate coated, so they're lighter than
brass.

The tech councilor at my EAA chapter suggested that I flare them partially
with the 45 degree tool and then finish the flare by tightening them in the
fitting. The soft aluminum line will form itself to the flare fitting. I did
this and also used DEL 37 fitting seals; my fittings don't leak

I couldn't find any locally so I ordered it from ACS (3003-0 Versatube).

| Subject: | Transponder Question |
--> Zenith-List message posted by: "Larry Martin" <earthloc@att.net>
Having zero experience on transponders I have a basic question. I have a King
KT76 transponder I bought about a year ago through e-bay. It has a yellow card,
with repair information dated just before I bought it. I had no reason to think
it wouldn't work.
I haven't wired it yet. I was wiring my Com coax and ohmed it to make sure of
no shorts. Then I happened to seen the Xponder cable and just stuck the ohm meter
to it. Dead short!!! Replaced the BNC ends on the cable, no help. Pulled
the xponder out of the shelf, ohmed the cable input, it was shorted or closed.
My question is, is it possible that the coax is normally closed when no power
is to it? I pretty sure I know the answer, but just double checking before
I take it to a avionics shop.

Yes, it is possible for a coax connected to an antenna to read a dead short
at D.C.. It depends on how the feed to the antenna is designed.
If the coax is indicating a short with both ends disconnected then you've
definitely got a problem. If one end is attached to the antenna then you
may or may not have a problem. You'll need to consult with the antenna
manufacturer or have a radio shop measure the antenna impedance at the
operating frequency it is intended to be used at as several antenna feed
schemes will read a D.C. Short but at R.F. Frequencies will exhibit a
significant impedance.
Don't try and perform that measurement with the transponder (or any radio)
connected to the feedline (coax)!
