Default Some technical considerations related to Spot trackingperformance

So what has been tried and what works?


On my ASH-26E, I installed the spot on the canopy rail right next to
my right shoulder. It's got a good view of most of the sky, and I can
verify the LEDs are blinking. So far, I get good tracking results. I
removed the belt clip and attached a little bit of heavy duty hook and
loop material to keep it attached.

This should work on all recent Schleicher gliders as they have that
nice wide sill back there.
