Subject:  Remote GPS antenna


I am going to mount my hand held GPS for use in the cockpit. It has the
option for remotely mounting of the antenna. Upon perusal of the
Aircraft Spruce catalog it seems all the units they have are
multi-hundreds of dollars!!!. I want to put it in the ceiling between
the two doors. Does anyone have any experience with a home made or
non-aircraft remote antenna in this application. I was looking for a
sub-$100 unit for an antenna since the whole GPS is only $450.
