Garmin GA56 Antenna Mount

[mike newall]

We don't have XM over here but I want to mount my GA56 antenna under the cowling.

Does anyone have a template that I can use please.

I know I could fold one out of card but all you helpful chaps and chapesses out there will surely have done one before me

If anyone can help, please email

Thanks

I can send you one tomorrow for $25 plus shipping or I'll do a flat pattern in CAD for a GA56 only mount for free. The mount I sell has a place for the XM antenna/radio for Garmin 496 etc. You'd be all set if you add XM later.

Hi John, saw that which prompted me to ask about the plain mount for the GA56. I don't think I have that much space left on the firewall for your mount but the GA56 only in CAD would be perfect. Email should be under my profile - thanks.

We won't get XM ever - wrong part of the planet so they say, we get digital radio instead - good but none of the add ons that XM has

Mike - sorry for the slow response. I've been tied up the last few days. Didn't realize you were not in North America.

I will put something together this week if you don't mind waiting a couple of days.

Bubblehead - thanks, I'm a very patient person

Bigginsking - thanks, I have a tip up and don't want the cable getting in the way, but a neat solution for the 8.

This isn't very sophisticated, but it works just fine. I made a mount out of 2 .063 angles and a base plate. Using an adel clamp on the motor mount made it very solid. Took about 2 hours to do.
