You are spoiled by flying where there are mountains to guide you. In Kansas, look at the GPS track when you want to know direction. Or pull out your iPhone, and use the compass app. -- Dan, 5J Garmin's only precaution about the placement of multiple GPS antennas is the potential effect of one antenna shadowing another: 3c. To minimize the effects of shadowing at 5° elevation angles, the GPS antenna should be mounted no closer than 6 inches (edge to edge) from other antennas, including passive antennas such as another GPS antenna or XM antenna. http://static.garmin.com/pumac/GA35G...structions.pdf And if you want to share a single antenna with multiple instruments you can get a splitter (albeit not cheaply!): https://www.gpssource.com/collections/gps-splitter Tom |
