Running the antenna wire through a small hole in the bulkhead and just letting it lay against the side of the bay works pretty well in practice. A useful trick is to use a drinking straw to hold the antenna wire straight while you stuff in the laundry, then pull the straw out. > So - How much signal loss if that wire is just curved to fit the AV > bay ? It's not great. You can easily ground test this, though, since altosui will show you the received signal strength for each packet received. Bdale
