Dan - My AmeriKing ELT is mounted on the floorboard (in my 320) between
the pilot's left rudder pedal and the firewall.  Barely fits, but I don't
think the ACK ELT would fit there (I think it's slightly larger).  I
don't know that I'd recommend the location anyway, as it would be
virtually impossible to get the #@$*  thing out after a crash.  

My antenna is the copper tape variety, inside the forward deck just
forward of the windshield.  (I don't have a header tank.)  It at least
reaches out to a hand-held at 50 yards, good VSWR.
