  1. I purchased my 79 M20K with -LB engine and no Merlyn or intercooler. Added both on the first annual. Great plane.
  2. I haven't spent too much time with it yet but so far I like it. The BT connectivity is nice and the audio quality is an improvement. The intelliaudio definitely makes it interesting listening to two channels simultaneously.
  3. Upgraded to a PS Engineering audio panel and have this for sale. Working great when removed, very good condition. Originally installed new in Sept 2015. $750 + shipping, or best offer before putting it on Ebay. Thanks Steve
  4. I started wearing progressive lenses about 10 years ago and have found getting the right lens manufacturer is a big part of having them work well. My wife works for some optometrists and has been working with lens maker for quite a while. Getting the right progressive profile for what you are using them for is important. She will agree with Hank, pilots and engineers are pretty hard to please when correcting vision (I'm both). Ask lots of questions about the difference in lens options, and take them back if you don't adjust to them in a few days. They don't always get the measurements correct, as mentioned earlier.
  5. I haven't found any wiring that isn't covered for my 231. After using the pdf file a few times, this large printed version was well worth the $15.
  6. Kind of looks like this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/265588856868?chn=ps&_trkparms=ispr%3D1&amdata=enc%3A11vjAzp7CSze15vqd3xHazA28&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-117182-37290-0&mkcid=2&itemid=265588856868&targetid=1599090336897&device=c&mktype=&googleloc=9024320&poi=&campaignid=15275224983&mkgroupid=131097072938&rlsatarget=pla-1599090336897&abcId=9300697&merchantid=6296724&gclid=Cj0KCQjw0umSBhDrARIsAH7FCofa4eo_crtctP5DhaZldMWW8owOCnYIsxiOZJ-ST057m4UNPPuGNn4aAmbcEALw_wcB I was going to guess zener diode.
  7. My vfr flights rarely show up on flightaware. I also operate out of a class D.
  8. If you have the Turboplus intercooler, they have power correction chart near the bottom of their webpage: http://www.turboplus.com/mooney231-intercooler.asp http://www.turboplus.com/documents/Turboplus-power-correction-table.pdf
  9. It's just a typical un-insulated metal building with sliding doors. There are small gaps around the doors but the air exchange seems petty minimal.
  10. My hangar isn't anything special but I do have one of these in it: https://smile.amazon.com/MIDEA-MAD30C1YWS-Portable-Dehumidifier-basements/dp/B07NRDBBH5/ref=sxin_14?asc_contentid=amzn1.osa.ad4c9e4e-d868-4f3d-b9f0-8addc39b845f.ATVPDKIKX0DER.en_US&asc_contenttype=article&ascsubtag=amzn1.osa.ad4c9e4e-d868-4f3d-b9f0-8addc39b845f.ATVPDKIKX0DER.en_US&creativeASIN=B07NRDBBH5&crid=12NS0AH5UT874&cv_ct_cx=portable+dehumidifier&cv_ct_id=amzn1.osa.ad4c9e4e-d868-4f3d-b9f0-8addc39b845f.ATVPDKIKX0DER.en_US&cv_ct_pg=search&cv_ct_we=asin&cv_ct_wn=osp-single-source-earns-comm&keywords=portable+dehumidifier&linkCode=oas&pd_rd_i=B07NRDBBH5&pd_rd_r=3b84667e-66a0-4bb9-a723-ac93f4ffc9b6&pd_rd_w=RRyuC&pd_rd_wg=wqLBO&pf_rd_p=5846ecd6-3f37-4a28-8efc-9c817c03dbe9&pf_rd_r=KHPACRDJ3JEX7Q5QQWD6&qid=1642202820&sprefix=portable+dehum%2Caps%2C134&sr=1-1-64f3a41a-73ca-403a-923c-8152c45485fe&tag=21oak-20 It was recommended by someone on the forum a year or two ago and I was initially skeptical that it would do much. It actually works really well. After a rain when water runs across the hangar floor, it will dry the concrete in about a hour. According to the display it maintains about 40-50% humidity in the hangar when it 80-90% outside.
  11. I really like mine also and have the same thought about sensing humidity. I use one channel to switch a dehumidifier, automating that would be nice. On a side note, I had great service from Sean/Jake when I had a power surge on mine recently.
  12. I use this on a RAM yoke mount and it works well for me. I am using a Samsung tablet very close in size to the Ipad mini's. https://www.amazon.com/Mounts-HOL-TAB29U-Unpkd-Tab-tite-Samsung/dp/B016WQEY66/ref=asc_df_B016WQEY66/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=309807187084&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=8537952937648302602&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9024320&hvtargid=pla-570327155669&psc=1
  13. @DRL Sorry, I sold it a while back and forgot to mark it sold.
  14. +1 for good experience with KC headsets/Terry. Happy with my refurb DC headset purchase and Terry helping with my questions.
