My RV-7 has Van's system 6 landing, taxi, strobe. and position lights in the forward edge of the W715-1 wing tip. The installation calls for an aluminum foil reflector secured with Pliobond in the perimeter of the tip.
I'm interested in using a Bob Archer VOR wing tip antenna, but in talking to Mr. Archer on the phone he said he has had no experience with this installation and was not sure if the aluminum foil would degrade the signal or not.
I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who has flow their RV with this configuration. Basically, does the antenna work and how well?
