<<<Barry Knotts, LIV-P said:  Here's my current take of my planned antenna needs:
ELT - under glass portion of turtle deck
  TRANSPONDER - external antenna on belly (with ground plane)
  GS1 - external strip antenna at left wing root
  GS2 - external strip antenna at right wing root
  COM1 - belly whip (with ground plane)
  COM2 - belly whip (with ground plane)
  NAV1 - vertical stab
  NAV2 - ?
  GPS & satellite radio antennas - under the glass portion of the turtle deck.>>>
 
Barry, I have attached a PDF sketch of my external belly antennas (similar to your plan).  Do you want a marker beacon?  Mine is in right wing fairing.  I have only one NAV antenna....whisker style in vertical stab.  No separate GS antennas.  Going with Chelton and only one CDI.  I was planning on WSI and GPS is turtle deck as well.  I don't have to decide for a few months so I plan on letting the inside/outside discussion continue to develop.
 
Now I'm spooked.  I have the ground plane paint and it was planned to go on within the next week.  Lancair Avionics swears by it.  Anybody else?
