| Subject: | ELT antenna location RV8A |
Hi Rollin=2C
We placed our old 121.5 antenna on the right rear seat bulkhead ( just off
the rear passenger's Right shoulder ) and secured the antenna as the tip be
nt around the top of the bulkhead. Always tested well and never had a probl
em with canopy slider or the rear seat vertical panel. Our ELT transmitter
was located under the baggage shelf.

I am replacing the old 121.5 ELT with a 406 in my RV8A. The old antenna was
under the empennage fairing. The new antenna is longer and doesn=92t fit a
s good in that location and I am thinking there might be a better location.
With the sliding canopy I am scratching my head. Where are others putting
their antenna? Thanks Rollin

I have the Ameri-King AK-451 ELT with GPS input on the RV-8 and mounted my
antenna under the fin. Seem to fit well. Attached is a picture.

Hi Bill,
I don't have a jig for you, but I built one for my RV-4. The fact is that they
are not hard to build. I bought some "engineered lumber" and built the thing in
a day. The lumber is quite stable and strong. The jig remained true through
the fuselage construction. After building the fuselage I used the wood for work
benches. Good luck!
