interested in your opinions relative to internal
versus external antennas. Do you give up
clarity/range/dependability/accessibility burying an antenna inside the plane,
or does it matter?
John,
Carbon cloth, put'm on the outside. Glass cloth, the inside works
just fine.
The ES-P and IV-P each have glass
where antennae could be housed. I have the marker in the
wing-to-fuselage fairing, WSI and one GPS antenna in the vertical
stab, com 2 in the rudder, and a VOR antenna in each wingtip. Other
stuff like lower Ryan TCAD, Stormscope, com 1, and transponder are on the
belly. Only the Ryan upper antenna is visable on top.
