[rebel-builders] Moose: Avionics and Antennas
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 11:55 am
Hello Bob,
I had two 430's on my Moose as well as glide slope, ELT; I just didn't have
a storm scope or TAS. Both GPS antennas were on the cabin roof. The comm
antennas were right behind them and worked well in that location. The ELT
antenna was under the dorsal fin (I assume it worked fine there <grin>).
The VOR antenna's were on the top of the tail / vertical stabilizer pointed
to the rear. The localizer/glide slope & transponder antennas were on the
belly, just aft of the seats.
I can email you pics to your email addr if you want them.
Ted

I am looking for help and advise on antenna selection and location for a
Murphy Moose . It will be equipped with the following goodies. 2- Chelton
systems, 2 - 430's, 2- comm, 2-Nav, 1-TAS, 1- WX500 storm scope, 2- VOR &
glide scope, ELT and 1-ADI Tru-Trac auto pilot. There will be 12 -14
antennas involved or possibly less if sharing is feasible involving
splitters?? I have also been told wing tip antennas are not as good as
conventional mount.If there is anyone with previous similar experience I
would appreciate comments and recommendations. Thanks. - Bob J
