|
There was some discussion a while back about mounting GPS and Weather antenna's. Here is my solution.
I have a Garmin 430W GPS antenna, a stand alone GPS serial receiver and the XM weather antenna's all mounted under the cowling. No issues in 270+ hours.
The stand alone GPS unit drives the AFS Autopilot and the copilot AFS-3500 EFIS. The Garmin GPS is driving the pilot side AFS-4500 EFIS.
They are forward enough to have a good view of the sky.
The $30 GPS receiver is this one:
