I've configured both according the guidelines of TruTrak, I get the bearing info of the GPS, but never an activated flightplan shows up with the -F- symbol on the digitrak. Any advice much appreciated crossposted on Aerolectrics list Werner (Glastar HB-YKP) do not archive ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 06:03:09 PM PST US From: "Dave Ford" Subject: Avionics-List: Re: Avionics-List Digest: 4 Msgs - 05/01/04 --> Avionics-List message posted by: "Dave Ford" > 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 > I have my GPS antenna mounted on the engine mount just under the fiberglass cowling.
