I may have missed something in the beginning of this discussion, but why are you
avoiding putting the Nav antenna in the wing, as described in Lancair Supplement
#1 (Antennas)?. I have one nav. in the (old) kevlar tail and one in the wing,
wired to the two Nav sets, and both work fine. At least, I have not been able to
detect noticeable difference of sensitivity, and I have the extended wing tanks,
so most of the antenna there is submerged. Remember "wet wing" does not mean wet
like in wet water - Gasoline is not a dipole molecule like water, and hence not
a conductive screen.
