Hugh,

I am not at all sure that the FAA has any specs. for the ELT antenna
and suspect they don't. They might have some performance specs for the
ELT as installed but I doubt they have a prescriptive formula for how
to accomplish it. That would be out of character for the FAA. I believe
they just want an ELT installed and functional, and don't really care
how it is done or whether or not the antenna is external or internal as
long as it works and does not cause problems with other com/nav
equipment, but can't point to a specific FAR that states that. Also, I
think equipment requirements for LSA are regulated by ASTM Standards
which I've read. To the best of my recollection there is no specific
requirement for any particular type of ELT antenna in the ASTM LSA
standards.

Function over Form.
