Garmin 296 Antenna

      Hi Group We have a Garmin 296 panel mounted with the supplied antenna mounted below
      the top of the composite instrument module. The .110" diameter antenna wire
      is way too long:
      ** Can I cut and splice the antenna cable and make it shorter or is it some sort
      of tuned length? If OK to cut shorter, is there a minimum length?
      ** If recommended to leave antenna cable full length, would it be OK to hank it
      up in a 4" diameter circle and mount it about 1" aft of the GPS unit?
      Thx. Ron P.

      It is best to follow the manufacture's instructions.  If none, then use the cable
      supplied by the manufacturer.
      I used the manufactures recommended cable type and length and coiled up the extra
      length.  
      You could probably use a shorter length of RG58 as long as it has the same total
      loss as the supplied cable.
