Has anyone out there installed the ACK E-04 ELT and its associated
antenna? This is my current first choice for the ELT and I have
tentatively identified an appropriate ELT location, but the antenna is a
question mark given the complications posed by the RV-8 airframe. I
don't want to reopen that general subject, but limit my concerns to the
E-04.8 antenna specifically. I know that it is different from the one
used with the E-01, so I may be looking at a whole new can of worms.

Subject: | Dynon Skyview Airspeed Calibration... |
Dear Listers,
I've been flying the new 10" Dynon Skyview in the RV-6 for a few weeks now and
it seems like the airspeed is reading maybe 10mph fast. The GS always reads 10mph
or more slower than the True airspeed, no matter which way I fly with respect
to the current wind. Looking through the configuration options on the Skyview,
I'm not seeing parameters to calibrate the airspeed. If the airspeed were
*slow* compared to the GS, I could envision making adjustments to the Pitot
tube to get it in better alignment with slipstream. But *fast* is a head scratcher.
If there's no electronic configuration parameters to adjust, what do
you do? Are there Pitot line "attenuators" like for RF in coax? ;-)
