Europa-List: Transponder antenna

[Paul Stewart <europa@pstewart.f2s.com>]

Can anyone enlighten me on positioning our transponder stubb antenna?  
We have a microair T2000 transponder. They have suggested to us we 
should limit the co-ax cable to 6 feet due signal loss. This would 
preclude it going behind the baggage bay. I seem to have got it into my 
head from somewhere that transponder antennae should be kept a 
reasonable distance from occupants or is this just b******s?

Regards
