 |
|
Bob,
All this talk about transponder "Antenna" locations has me thinking about the location of the transponder itself. Will my Becker 2 1/4" transponder (250watt) be "polite" to the Trutrak autopilot sitting next to it within 1/4"? Or should I locate a less critical device in the hole right next to the transponder? If so which device would likely get along in close proximity with the transponder? Voltmeter, electronic fuel gauge, electronic tach, electronic clock?

Hi Bevan,
Re: All this talk about transponder "Antenna" locations has me thinking

(250watt)
On a tangent, I have the same unit and having noted the relatively high
power consumption compared to the coms sharing the stack, elected to put
the xpdr at the top. This ought to help keep my avionics as cool as
practical behind the panel.
FWIW-

Design considerations for devices designed to live
and work on the panel of your airplane include
the knowledge that there ARE potentially incompatible
antagonists and victims that need to function
side-by-side. This is part of what DO-160 testing
is all about.
Unless the installation instructions specifically
warn against any particular locations, then there's
no good reason to create any new worries about it.
