Since the fuselage of the Allegro 2000 is a fiberglass composite construction, I have used aluminum tape in an X pattern on the inside of the fuselage to obtain a ground plane for the antenna. My ECK Model E-01 ELT unit requires its antenna to be mounted at least 5 feet from any other radiating antenna. Practically, this means that the ELT antenna has to be mounted some where on top of one of the wings using the aluminum as its ground plane. I am wondering where some of you have mounted your ELT antennas.
