Default Archer Antenna Install

I am installing the Archer antenna in the wing tip.
I read the instructions on routing the wing tip lights
along the front part of the antenna in the clamps provided.
What it doesn't tell me is that just the Nav lights or the
Nav and the Strobe cables.
Direction appreciated.

Hey Bert,
Any power wiring you have in the tip should run through those clamps when possible.

Default All of them

I'll second what Mark said. Route them all together. I never looked to see maximum range, but I can confirm I recieve 100NM+ range with my Archer ant. Works good for me.
