All I am flying the old standard AVA EF (flapped electric with a lot of carbon). The rcvr is mounted on a velcro pad on the bottom of the pod with its antenna side in line with the back of the pod access opening. There is a lot of carbon in the pod in that area. The antennas are routed toward the carbon boom and exit 3 1/2 inches back of the pod access opening and 1/2 inch above the pod seam. Golden Rod pushrod tubes can be used to make antenna guides to protect and direct the bare wire antenna. When the guides are 45 degrees from the fuse on each side (and located behind the wing) they are at their optimum orientation. Excellent operation and range have been achieved with this antenna arrangement. Dale
