I have an Archer nav in each wing, and have been very satisfied with their performance.
I mounted mine to the outboard rib of each wing, rather than in the wing
tip. Makes it easier to remove the tip on those infrequent occasions when
it is necessary.

Jim
Did you install them with some kind of insulators, or are they making
contact with the outboard aluminum ribs?

The 'ground' leg of the antenna must be tied electrically to ground, either directly
screwed or riveted to the rib, or in my case, being riveted to the nutplates
on the wingtip. In the latter case you are relying on the attach screws to
make good contact with both the nutplates and the wingskin. I removed the paint
on the skin under the screw heads.

Carlos,
The long leg of the antenna is fastened to the wing rib, as Bob mentioned above.
The other 2 legs just lay on the inner surface of the wing tip, but are not
fastened to it in any way.
