ELT location?

[mike.smith]

I have found a few logs/photos of various ELT installations in Sonexes, but am looking for some more ideas on locations, and the structures built to support them. I have the antenna installed about 42" behind the cockpit, on top of the fuselage. The 5' coax only reaches so far. I can certainly get a longer coax if I have to, but still looking to see what others have done. I have the ACK E-04.

My antenna is mounted in approx the same location. I made a tray with some sheet and a piece of angle. I mounted that behind former #2 that way it is still easily accessible but is hidden by my bulkhead divider and baggage sling.

That's about where I was thinking. Thanks for sharing. My mount is a little longer than yours, so I'll have to see what size I would need for the triangle.
