Question: Do any of you guys have experience with the antenna on the belly and the turtle deck? If so, which is best? How do you mount an antenna on the turtle deck without hitting the "back bone"?
Thanks for Your Time,

Hi Wes,
My Sonex has a belly mounted antenna and I flew out of a controlled airport for 10 years. Never had any problem communicating with ground control from anywhere on the airport. Other's experience may be different. I just don't like the appearance of the turtledeck mounted antenna even though it is a more effective location, no doubt, especially while on the ground.
