Tracy Crook ----- Original Message ----- From: vft@aol.com To: rocket-list@matronics.com ; rv-list@matronics.com Sent: Saturday, January 06, 2007 7:18 PM Subject: RV-List: Garmin XM and GPS antennas Does anyine have any experience running the Garmin 396/496 XM antenna next to the external GPS antenna. I'm planning on mounting them just underneth my glare shield (glare shield is fiber glass). Rockets have pretty small glare shields so this would put the antennas pretty close to each other. A second antenna from a Garmin 250 would be very close as well.

I did just that and mine works great. I mounted my Garmin 530 GPS antenna on a platform which I attached high and center on the engine side of my firewall. The cowl and much of the rest of my airplane is painted with a beautiful teal metal flake paint. I now have 200 hours on my RV-6 and not the slightest problem with this GPS antenna installation. I lock into a GPS signal quickly (within 30 seconds of start up) and never had a problem losing it in flight. Further, before I made this installation (during construction in 2004) I talked with the Garmin people and they did not see any problems with my installation. I do open my oil access door after flying, but that is more to just help the whole engine compartment cool down.

Maybe it is the site of the company that supplies Van's with the wingtip extentions, maybe not. Anyway, if this "rings a bell" with anyone, would you please point me towards the site/link I am referring to? Thanks in advance.
