question I have seen so many sites but I have so much confusion where to install transponder antenna, I have the dynon skywev and many install it to the bow under the foot of the passenger, but say maybe too close to the transponder itself, and then I saw so many behind but I already have two antennas com and it would be too close, and then how long should the wire be?
thank you

Re: RV7 transponder antenna location
You can mount the transponder behind the baggage compartment rear bulkhead and put the antenna down in the rear part of the fuselage. I mounted it on the side of the center rib. The advantage here is not having to have a long coax run through the cabin.
The antenna for the XPNDR is on the far right side of the fuselage, and the closer one in the picture is for ADS-B on the left side.
Many more photos in my build web site.
