Hi Steve 

Aren’t you concerned about transmitting high power so close to your head?

I made a wideband dipole out of brass tubing and mounted it on the back of the headrest (Longeze).  I use it for both bands and it works fine.  Sorry I don't have a better picture.

Campers,

I know there has been a lot of discussion on the ADSB-In antenna placements a few months back, but curious to see what people are getting good results with in
a Classic Cozy 3 now that there has been a little more time and likely more experience.

I know there was the slot antenna and others, but I am thinking a 13"ish square foil for the dipole under the left thigh support.  I know it is a projection and subject to ridicule, but pretty simple and not a lot of changes / structure in the back seat area.

I am hooking up to a Dynon HDX system in a panel upgrade and it is about the last thing I have when my newly repaired ADAHRs gets back (static port failure....).

Feel free to contact me off line as I am sure most feel we have done this to death.

Thanks!
Richard
