Has anyone had experience with installing a transponder antenna on the top
of their glider?

With as little level flight that we do and with most threats that have TCAS
coming from above it would seem logical that having it on top would not be a
detriment to the functionality of the instrument.

We have a carbon fiber fuselage (Nimbus 3D) which would prevent penetration
to any receivers directly below the aircraft.
