Fellow Listers,

I have a Comant bent whip com antenna that I am planning for the underside of my 6A.

I know that I want to keep it away from the exhausts so I was initially planning on installing it in the first bay outboard of the elevator pushrod tunnel - right under the copilot seat.

Where are the rest of you putting it?

Ralph,

I did not build my six, but the com antenna is mounted dead center of the
fuselage about six
inches back from the firewall. Aside from some oil residue from the
breather there have been no problems with this installation.
Every couple of preflights I just wipe off the antenna. The exhaust tubes
are spaced far enough apart that the antenna has
not been affected by heat.
