    Subject: Antenna locations
    --> RV8-List message posted by: Don Miller <millerdon@voyager.net> Hi Carl I worked with Bill McKelvey of Huron Avionics at Port Huron, MI and arranged the antennas equally spaced along the aft portion of the belly; #1 & #2 com, marker beacon and transponder, with the comm antennas separated as much as possible. ILS "whiskers" adjacent to the tailwheel mount; and GPS on top of the glareshield. Contrary to Garmin instructions, I lightly coated the GPS antenna with a light coating of black paint with no ill effects. Belly-mounted antennas get backing plates; also, use platenuts for easy removal later. Drag? So far, 60% power from the O-360 has produced 165k @ 7,000 ft. I'm happy. Don Miller
