RV Aircraft Resources

The Best in Flight Training

I put this page together to help me remember some of the RV related supplies, accessories and resources that I read about in the various email groups such as RV Email Lists - Matronics, Rivet Bangers - RV Information Exchange, Yahoo - RV-7A & 9A, Van's Air Force, Website & Forum and for those RV brethen "across the pond" in the United Kingdom, The RV Squadron. Please feel free to contact me if I left anything off that you think should be on this page.

Using a 3-blade Coax Stripper Preparing the end of a coax feedline for connector installation with ordinary hand tools takes a fair amount of skill and care. Various layers of insulation and outer braid must be cleanly cut away at locations appropriate to he connector being installed. For the first several decades of the history of BNC connector installation, the technician used a sharp knife, a deft touch and some degree of skill and practice for "eye-balling" the right dimensions. Like all hand-operations, the risk for having to start over due to lack of diligence was moderately high. A number of clever tool manufactures now offer devices fitted with multiple blades, each one spaced appropriately for strip lengths and set for proper depth of cut.
