Finally, if you get REAL serious about this stuff and understand that I
won't be available to answer questions right away, and as I understand it
you live in Georgetown about 20 miles south of me, I'll take on the
inspection job IF you report blow-by-blow progress to this newsgroup. I'll
even loan you the schematic drawing program with a couple of samples from
the 182 files. It would be nice if we could figure out how to ferry the
airplane up to Grass Valley for the inspections, then you fly it home with
the signoff (or a list of squawks to clean up).

No matter WHOSE audio panel you use, or WHOSE radio you use, it will be
absolutely mandatory for you to find a pinout of the connector. A good
starting place is Bob Nuckoll's page at www.aeroelectric.com .

Interested?

Yes!

BTW - I have a Cessna (360 I think) NAV/COM that my instructor gave me,
but was putting it off to stop the bleeding in other areas first, and
for fear of throwing in new money to install old parts. I have two
operational NAV's in the plane already, so I'm feeling pretty good
about that. (Shoot... If I didn't need to talk to anybody, my IFR
situation is pretty darn good, with the exception of lacking a DME)

How would you recommed we kick this project off? I can fly up to the
GOO and we can chat??? We can discuss a plan, and Montblack's ferrying
suggestion... ;-)

Thanks very much for the offer! I would really like to learn more
about my plane, and this would be a great opportunity!

Best Regards,
Todd
