I am looking at mounting my GPS antenna just of my sliding canopy of my RV-7A,
the coax run looks to be around 20 feet.
Is this length of coax run a problem?
Gerry

Probably not. Most aircraft GPS receivers use active antennas, i.e. they have
a preamp in the antenna to overcome the loss in the coax.

There is a time to laud one's country and a time to protest.
A good citizen is prepared to do either as the need arises.

Probably no problem if you have an 'active' antenna
from a feeder loss point of view.
But I'm just wondering where you are going to put the
comm antenna. You really don't want it anywhere near the
GPS antenna.
