So first I will apologize for writing yet another thread about the placement of antennas on an RV-10. There are hundreds of posts on the topic and I have read most of them. I appreciate top and bottom is best for diversity, not so much for aesthetics. My current thinking/plan is to put one Comant Ci-122 under the left rear passenger seat with coax going to tailcone for remote radio location and another Comant Ci-122 under the copilot seat, coax going to the panel. This gets about 4' of distance and gets them out of each other's radiating pattern. Will that be enough separation for simultaneous transmitting on the comms? I am also planning on SDS EFI so things are getting a little crowded under that seat with return fuel lines and such but I think it will work. Also, I am thinking the transponder will go behind the firewall in the tunnel. Is there a downside to this approach that I am not accounting for? Exhaust streams, potential performance issues, something else???
