Hi all, I've been having a little problem with ATC reading my transponder all the time. I suspect a bit of shadowing.. I have the 2 1/2"-3" transponder antenna mounted upside down on a shelf on the r

Al the best place might be up on the roof, upside down. Nothing much to shadow it up there? Your ground plane sounds OK but a halfwave dipole is better, Bob Archer makes a heat one. Gives a flatter d

Very bad advise!!! The Bob Archer Antenna is a "dipole" antenna and is similar in design as your Com antenna if built like suggested in the Europa manual. The 2 1/2 inch antenna is a monopole antenna

Al I have mine installed but have not used it yet. I think you are going to be much better off with a vertical dipole in the Europa than a ground plane. The Archer antenna the others spoke about is a

I've got the Archer dipole in my Europa. It is mounted about 6" forward of the inspection hole at the bottom of the fin. It works fine. I would be concerned about flying with a transponder aerial mou

Thanks to all who replied. I'll trim my ground plane down and try that first. If needed I've seen the Bob Archer antenna's and may switch. Again thanks for the answers Al Stills N625AZ

Hi Al, I have been looking at the antennas on composites airplanes (Lancairs, Glas airs, etc) for years and the fact is that most builders install al l antennas inside the airframe for obvious drag r

I like to think I saved weight in constructing a backplane for my transponder aerial by using tin foil. I constructed a flat 12" by 14" backplane using two layers of bid, On a glass surface I put one

Justin only downside is possible corrosion of the connection to the cable braid. Might be worth finding a silver loaded resin to add long term reliability Graham btw I think your wing roots are the n
