My Rocket, since I also have a manual 406 GPS PLB. Posted: Wed 5:31 am Post subject: Re: ELT Antenna What do I need to measure the output with this mockup? Posted: Wed 5:10 am Post subject: Re: ELT Antenna My life may depend on the automatic system pointing I figure any automaticĪctivation of the ELT will be because of a sudden stop, so I'll probably be I'll be making anĪngled mount with fibreglass fairing like a COM antenna for the underside of Part of the radiating element that needs to be exposed. The Kannad whip antenna is base-loaded, so the ugly first 6" black base is Posted: Tue 8:30 pm Post subject: ELT Antenna

Don't forget the rules about when and how to test ELTs. See how it works with and without theįoil. If you wish to be sure, build a mock up with foil But the application is so direct there is no doubt you could be

The longer answer involves not only the shielding effect caused by theĪluminum but also the feed mismatch, both of which will reduce signal You are much more likely to not be heard by having the external part of the Posted: Tue 7:55 pm Post subject: ELT Antenna

My question: would the ELT still be heard with the bottom 8 inches or so of base hidden under. That approach would be unobtrusive, avoid an ugly 2 foot tall antenna with fat black base, and avoid beefing up the turtleback top to support it. I'd like to mount the antenna 2 feet back on the top of the main fuselage structure, so the rubber part is inside the turtleback, then poke the steel whip out the top through a small hole/grommet. 025 alum, about a foot high/wide at the cockpit then tapering to about 4 inches at the fin. This is an unusual Chippy - it's single seat open cockpit, and I installed an 8 foot long turtleback/headrest to conceal a rollover bar behind the rear seat. (Thanks!!) The ELT is the last thing on the to-do list before I secure all the wire bundles. (Google "Super Chipmunk Restoration".) I successfully completed a new electrical system using the Z-11 architecture and knowledge gained from the Aeroelectric Connection and this list. But now I'm trying to figure out where to put the whip! It's a monstrosity.Īircraft is a Super Chipmunk which I'm totally rebuilding. The blade/vane for this unit are hundreds/thousands more expensive. The cheapest antenna for this ELT is the whip, which is what I bought with it.
