Hi Jacques,
We dispensed with the NAV antenna and receiver. We had the feeling those
rabbit ears hanging in the breeze would not benefit the MCR design.
We have only three antennas : Bob Archer's VHF antenna in the wingtip,
GPS active antenna on the glareshield, and a 21$ plain vanilla
transponder antenna hidden in the glass lower rear fuselage fairing. The
transponder coax is RG 400.
