If you were so ... ummm ... thoughtless as to try and bond a dipole type antenna for transponder use half your transponder power gets radiated into outer space. Where, as I understand it, no ATC facilities yet exist. Jim sounds like a good place to use Wier's foil antenna setup :-)

Absolutely NOT. That is the LAST place you want a ferrite-foil dipole. You
