Hey Jonesy,
At least when I fly backward, it's on purpose :) I mount the receiver on top of the headrest and it just looks ugly. Now in the KR, it was actually IN the cockpit area and too much of a hassle. I already had the plug in for the phone and the IPOD and the com and the GPS and the.... Say, shouldn't you be working instead of harassing us bums. Wow, it's such a WARM day today, I think I may have to go fly for awhile.

It has a battery life of about 12 hours. END........................................................ I didn't realize it had such a short battery life. With 3 AAA batteries I get about 30 to 40 hours of use. I could typically fly to the Gathering and back to California and never change the batteries. Maybe I should keep what I have. I also can use airframe power but that just adds another wire hanging in the cockpit.
