I have read everything I could find here on this topic. There have been several threads. This specific question was not answered in any of the other threads.
This question is specific to the 8A. I am planning to put my two rami bent whip comm antenna just aft of the spare, one on each side, 24 inches apart. At least one other forum member has done the same, although I do not think that he is flying yet so I cannot get a pirep on that installation.
The 8A is different from the 8 in that the gear legs would be closer to the antenna on the 8A. I read that the antenna should not be within 2 feet of things like gear legs.
Is anyone flying with an 8A that has the antenna just aft of the spare and 24 inches apart? Anyone flying any RV with the bent whips 24 inches or less apart? If so, how is that working for you?
Thanks
