FLARM antenna question (hindrance from metal)
Ted et al:
Saw an interesting FLARM antenna installation in Pete Alexander's ASG29 which according to Pete works fine. This seems a good option for any glider with carbon in the nose. The dipole antennas were protruding through the glare shield either side of center, with just one pole of the antenna in the pilot's view. I didn't pull the canopy off to see where the left hand one was relative to the vent pushrod. Suppose this could be done in tandem too, but the vent door may block reception directly forward.
