Hollis Helms Questioned where to place the SA 007 Nav. Antenna if you have
the Mark II carbon fiber tail and wet wings.

We place ours in the top fuselage surface of the baggage compartment. You
can get it out to an angle of approximately 90 degrees which I was told was
adequate and you bid it in to follow the contour of the fuselage with the
point of the "V" towards the tail. Cable runs aft from the "V" behind the
hat rack door before running forward. We built a small box out of E Glass
to fit over the connector and this fastens to the head lining with Velcro.
All looks pretty neat and easy to get at if ever you had a problem. With
regards to performance, I'm still waiting for my full permit and have been
flying within 25 miles of our home airport in England but I've been picking
up the local VFR with no problem at 2000 feet.
