Default Locating Transponder Antenna on top of the fuselage instead ofunder it.

UH, as I said in my earlier post it was way easier to install on the turtle deck than down by the gear. In my 27, it took less than 4 hours from start to finish including the transponder and power routing. The longest portion was the routing of the antenna cable up through the tunnel to the panel, not alot of room in there I didnt crimp on the bnc to that end until after I fished it up to the panel. I mounted the blade as far back as I could possibly reach in the fuselage which is close to the junction of the flap and wing.
