In going thru the older messages in the archives and looking at the
different members websites on the construction of their respective aircraft-
I must say that I am impressed. One of the things that impresses me most is
that, in general- everyone seems to not only show their successes, but also

I don't disagree with you. I've used it with great results, as have
many people over the years.
You say too lossy. At the frequencies we run at, what's the difference
in attenuation?

I looked up the author in question on Google Books, and his books are on
there, too...
Which is nice for someone like me, who is in a place that has no
reliable mail service.

RE: KR> Canadian Bingelis etal/Eaa books
To all Canadian KR people and other lurkers like me, whenever you order books
from EAA be sure to have them shipped by USpost as they (EAA) usually use
Purlator or some other type and you will be faced with an additional
'brokerage fee'. I ordered their

Well, it won't make a highly poisonous gas when it burns... And it
doesn't like to/won't burn in air (read self-extinguishing). A good

There is a great deal of information on his site, but the book is priceless.

They are reasonably priced and have everything you mentioned including
the manifold... And they are local to me!
As far as Spruce and Wicks, define better? Lower cost? Spruce is lower

When in doubt, consult your To
Joseph,
Use whatever names you need to use. That is how we identify the sources for
materials. Yes, Aircraft Spruce and Wicks are good sources for everything
and I don't know if there is a "Better" place. For making manifolds, there

Dave,
Seems like you know what you need to use. I used Tefzel everywhere I could.
Yes, there is a lot of 22ga wire used, to cut down on weight where heavier
wire is not needed. When in doubt, I always used the heavier ga wire.
See N64KR at http://KRBuilder.org - Then click on the pics
See you
What do you guys use for your electrical wiring between instruments and
such?
Most of the photos I've seen show wire that's quite thin (makes sense
for weight savings) - on the order of phone-jack wire or Cat5
I'm assuming RG58/U for antenna wire...
Is there any issue with using Cat5 ether
