Here are two (almost) nil cost ways to cope with demisting:
<![if !supportLists]>1 <![endif]>Mount the panel on half inch (or similar) shock mounts, and as soon as you have done your power checks and got moving, the radio(s) heat convecting upwards through the resulting gap will keep you demisted.
<![if !supportLists]>2 <![endif]>If you get misted up before starting the take-off run, open the pilot door by an inch or two for a minute or two, and that will clear the initial mist-up.
And – the GPS aerial for my GNS 430 is mounted on the roof, between the doors.
