I mounted mine right behind the shelf behind the seat to the bottom of the fuselage and straight up. There was just enough room. I never planned on needing it and seriously the likelyhood of that antenna surviving on the exterior of a KR are pretty slim from any and all pictures I have seen. Transponder antennas are a different matter and most of us have installed the copper foil tape comm antenna in the tail under the glass for the past 20 years now. My first plane had 3 antennas,... the new one I think is going to have 5, 6, or 7... now i'm not even sure... Joe Horton 90% completed new number N657JH (DR. Dean plane)

What have you used, and how did you mount it. My ack E01 requires a 36in ground plane for the suppied antenna, and that limits locations. Yes I'm aware that the 121.5 system is being phased out, but I already have this one, and it still meeys the regulatory requirement. Kevin Stolhammer kstolham...@gmail.com
