Quoting from Dave's website:

Suggestion for Glare-Shields that Jettison with Canopy [i.e.
Schleicher -JC]

Make an antenna mount with a large base shaped to match glare-shield
(hint: lay up a fiberglass base on top of the glare-shield). Cut a
small hole through the glare-shield for the antenna and cable. Fasten
the base of the mount to the underside of the glare-shield with a
small amount of velcro. This makes it easy to remove the canopy/glare-
shield, and safe in a bail-out.

Comment: C'mon Dave. This is supposed to be a consumer product ready
for release to the glider market. And you really are suggesting that
half this market needs to go lay up fiberglass to install it? That's
beyond half-baked.

We really need to see one decent Shleicher install picture!

Again -- the world is full of dipole antennas with physical and
electrical connectors at the base. Why oh why are you not using such
an antenna in this most obvious place for it?
