Moderators may want to move this to another place. Do we need an ELT forum?
On my 8 the ELT antenna is mounted on the right rear armrest and bends up and around the rear seat. It's protected but probably worthless because it is in the aluminum "bath tub" of the fuselage.
I want to move the antenna to the empennage area but the current antenna is bent and the base is at an angle, intended for the bottom of the fuselage. Does anyone have a design for a home made 121.5 MHz antenna? I intend to mount a BNC on the bulkhead and Plug the antenna into it.
