Default Flarm Range Analysis

I'll try to remember to get a picture but here's a description:

The Flarm portable is mounted to the top center of the glare shield on
the Stemme. The B antenna is mounted through a grommet directly in
front of me (left side) and about 6 inches forward of the aft edge of
the glare shield. The A antenna is mounted in the same location on the
right side of the glare shield (right side) and the ADS-B antenna is
mounted about 6 inches in front of the A antenna. The GPS antenna is
mounted on top of the glare shield near the forward center. I cut the
coax cables to length and ran them along the under side of the glare
shield cover where they exit their own grommets a couple of inches away
from where the antennae are mounted allowing for a perpendicular run of
coax from the antenna before turning down under the glare shield.

Very good reception compared to most of what I've seen. I would love to see a photo or detailed description of your antenna layout, in particular the location, orientation, and separation of the FLARM A and B antennas. I assume the former is mounted on the portable box itself.
