Just got a Garmin 396 with XM Weather from a friend, but can't find anything on the computer on how to mount it. ( The guy I bought it from had the yoke mounting device which of course is no good on a stick). There must be hundreds of RV 8 drivers out there with portable Garmins mounted in your cockpits. Can anyone help?
A thousand thanks to all you guys--This helps greatly. Forgot to ask one other thing. I saw somewhere that the XM antenna ( for the GPS) messes up a wet compass if within 15 inches. My wet compass is right in front of my eyes on top of the glare shield, and of course right behind that, on top of the glareshield is where I've noticed all the guys put their GPS antennas. My XM antenna wire is 4' 2" long. Any thoughts on where that should go would be greatly appreciated.
