He verified for me that I installed the antenna correctly. Then he told me that the antenna just doesn't seem to work in some planes. Wish I'd known that before I bought it. << I had a AAE (small black strip) transponder antenna mounted in my 360. I kept getting "intermittent" complaints from ATC. The antenna was mounted in the aft fuselage, about a foot? forward of the leading edge of the horizontal stab. I replaced it with the Archer antenna and have had no complaints from ATC in 100+ hours. I guess all installs are different. Regards, Clark Baker N250JF LNC2 360, 550hrs tt
