FLARM A minimum spacing to ADS-B Antenna? 1 foot !?!?
If you're seeking to improve your Flarm range then moving to
a better aerial design is an option. In the crowded Alps you see many installations using the "SuperFant" antenna; see link below. This aerial is both small and slim and so does not impede the view when mounted on the front of the instrument panel, high just under the canopy. My experience is that it has much superior performance to the standard simple Flarm dipole. It's available with custom length cable. Of course the position of the Flarm aerial is critical! There are some truly terrible installations out there.... http://www.gliderdesignparts.de/ant_flarm.html I always found their service to be fast and relable; usual disclaimers.

Nice antenna frequency frequency different in Europe. Richard
