US ELT Installation

Eric,

I installed mine this past weekend, the antenna is located forward and
under the instrument panel glareshield, attached to the rudder pedal
bracket and installed within 20° of vertical as required by the
manual.

AmeriKing, $206 including shipping from Paul Remde.

See details he www.jimphoenix.com

That looks like a good installation, though I'd be concerned the antenna
would be damaged by in crash. It's still better than no ELT, but the
front of the cockpit is more likely to be significantly damaged than the
rear of the cockpit. Perhaps a rubber ducky mounted on a top corner of
the seat back would survive better, though it might not have the output
power of the longer whip.
