Looks like they will touch... and the manual says that is an improper antenna installation. Any other ideas on where to mount the portable in a Discus 2A or Ventus 2a fuselage? Walt Rogers, Wx Walt, They will touch, but that still works. According to Dave Nadler (and common sense) the ESD thing is a non-issue. I have had my portable since Uvalde last year, mounted in exactly the same way with no problem. Frank (TA)
