Saw this on another list. I've got an ACK E-01 in both my RV and Navion. I'm
going to look for a way to safety wire the antenna to the tray or remove it.

The potential is for the antenna (the portable one clipped to the mounting
tray) to get loose in the tailcone and jam the controls. With push tubes the
RVs are not as susceptible as those with cables and pulleys but it's a
potential problem that can be eliminated.
