 Posted: Fri Sep 30, 2011 12:01 pm Post subject: Installing ELT Antenna in a Lightning |
 |
|
I am going to be installing a ACK Technologies ELT into my Lightning. The install manual explains that for a composite aircraft you should install a ground plane for the antenna. I want to install the antenna inside the fuselage and I am wondering if anyone has done this with an ELT. The antenna is a whip antenna and I have some ideas, that I think would work, but thought I would ask the community first.
I will be posting this in the avionics list as well.
Thanks,
Dennis

Hi Dennis,
We make a ground plane of aluminum and attach it to the rear "L" angle for
the baggage floor. The antenna is behind baggage bulkhead.
Hope this helps.
