My AK-450 ELT is on its last legs. Time to replace. I am looking at the Kannad
Ameri-Fit Pack as a replacement. It includes the Integra AF 406MHz / 121.5MHz
beacon with mounting plate and remote control Panel. Does anyone in our group
have any experience with this ELT? It seems like a pretty simple swap-out and
even has an internal GPS. I'm also thinking it could be used with the auxiliary
antenna in lieu of an external whip.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Yeah, my RV-8's got one of those too. What a bummer. During
installation, the use of RG-11 for control and signal, seemed dubious
to me and seriously made me question the soundness of the engineering
throughout. Guess, my hunch was right.
I'd love to find a drop-in replacement. I've got a serial GPS
position signal going to it already, so an internal GPS might be overkill.
Curious where the community is going...
