STEP 1: Buy a Portable PowerFLARM STEP 2: Stick it on top of your
glareshield STEP 3: Make sure the antennas are pointed straight
up. STEP 4: (Optional?) Run a wire from your power-bus/battery to
the PowerFLARM.

How hard is that?

This (Noel's comment) is what I "planned/hoped" to do in my Genesis.

Interested if there have been any reports of interference between a
CAI Model 20 mounted near Portable Flarm(?). My Model 20 is mounted
behind instrument pod with antenna ~flush with top. The portable
would be about 10" ahead on top of pod (so antenna bases would be ~1"
above GPS-20 antenna). Flarm antennas can easily stand vertical.

Any comments appreciated!

I've been told about 12" separation in GPS antennas is adequate, and
your situation sounds like it qualifies. In practice, I've had no
trouble with GPS antennas only 8" apart and at the same height.
